When using request_firmware_nowait() with FW_ACTION_NOHOTPLUG param to
expose user helper interface, if the user do not react immediately, after
120 seconds there will be a hung task warning message dumped as below:

[ 3000.784235] INFO: task kworker/0:0:8259 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

This patch change the wait_for_completion() function call to
wait_for_completion_interruptible() function call for solving the issue.
