[NET]: Fix busy waiting in dev_close().

If the current task has signal_pending(), the loop we have to wait for the __LINK_STATE_RX_SCHED bit to clear becomes a pure busy-loop. Fixed by using msleep() instead of the hand-crafted version. Noticed by Andrew Morton. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
