md: use interruptible wait when duration is controlled by userspace.

User space can set various limits on an md array so that resync waits
when it gets to a certain point, or so that I/O is blocked for a short
while.
When md is waiting against one of these limit, it should use an
interruptible wait so as not to add to the load average, and so are
not to trigger a warning if the wait goes on for too long.
