PCI/VPD: Make pci_vpd_wait() uninterruptible
Reading/writing 4 bytes should be fast enough even on a slow bus, therefore pci_vpd_wait() doesn't have to be interruptible. Making it uninterruptible allows to simplify the code. In addition make VPD writes uninterruptible in general. It's about vital data, and allowing writes to be interruptible may leave the VPD in an inconsistent state.

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.
