The timeout was introduced in commit 402e3fe with equal timeouts around
the helper function call. In commit 55e5af2 the timeouts around the
helper function call have been removed, and it looks like the helper
function itself was not updated purely due to an oversight.
The operations here should not require any timeouts because the promises
only resolve once the action is completed, which also explains why
removing the timeouts surrounding the helper function calls went without
any problems. It should therefore be safe to remove this timeout too.
