This patch adds a system call semtimedop which allows a program to execute a
semaphore operation with a timeout. The function behaves just like semop
except if the calling process has to be suspended. If the process has been
suspended for longer than the timeout (and of course, its semaphore
operation hasn't completed) then the system call returns EAGAIN to the
calling process (via errno). Calling semtimedop with a NULL timeout is
identical to calling semop.
The overall impact to the semaphore code is minor.
