Since the beginning gsi_trans_commit_wait_timeout() has existed to provide a way to allow waiting a limited time for a transaction to complete. But that function has never been used. In fact, there is no use for this function, because a transaction committed to hardware should *always* complete. The only reason it might not complete is if there were a hardware failure, or perhaps a system configuration error. Furthermore, if a timeout ever did occur, the IPA hardware would be in an indeterminate state, from which there is no recovery. It would require some sort of complete IPA reset, and would require the participation of the modem, and at this time there is no such sequence defined. So get rid of the definition of gsi_trans_commit_wait_timeout(), and update a few comments accordingly. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
