kernel/sched.c: remove two unused functions

This patch removes the unused functions wait_for_completion_timeout and wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout.

Is any usage for them planned or is this patch OK?

yes, there's usage planned and patches pending - to convert certain sort of semaphore-based completion code to real completion code.

Adds 3 new completion API calls, which are a straightforward extension of the current APIs:

int wait_for_completion_interruptible(struct completion *x); unsigned long wait_for_completion_timeout(struct completion *x,

                                                   unsigned long timeout);
 unsigned long wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout(
                        struct completion *x, unsigned long timeout);

This enables the conversion of more semaphore-using code to completions. There is code that cannot be converted right now (and is forced to use semaphores) because these primitives are missing. Thomas Gleixner has a bunch of patches to make use of them.
