Log:
wcte12xp: Use interruptible waits to decrease impact on load average.

The wcte12xp does all the checking for alarm in a user space workqueue.
Most of this time is spent sleeping waiting for reads from the framer to
complete.  Tasks in uninterruptible sleeps are added to running tasks
for the purposes of calculating load average. This change makes the
sleeps interruptible so as to not affect the load average as much.

For example, the following command will load and configure the driver and
then print the load average every 10 seconds.

]# modprobe wcte12xp && dahdi_cfg && ((x=12)); while [[ $x -gt 0 ]]; do cat
/proc/loadavg; sleep 10; let x=$x-1; done
