PATCH 1/1 m68k/time: replace schedule_timeout() with

Hi,

Please consider applying.

Description: The comments preceding the schedule_timeout() call in time.c below indicated a 50ms delay is desired. The current code implictly assumes HZ==100 and requests a delay of 5 ticks. This is clearly broken in higher HZ models. Using msleep_interruptible() makes HZ changes transparent. Change the corresponding constant appropriately and add a comment to indicate units.
