That'd be a good start. But given that this is starting to be a common
construct, it could probably be rewritten as:

static int its_poll_timeout(struct its_node *its, void *data,
                            int (*fn)(struct its_node *its,
                                      void *data))
{
	while (1) {
		if (!fn(its, data))
			return 0;

		...
	}
}

and have the call sites to provide the right utility function. We also
have two similar timeout loops in the main GICv3 driver, so there
should be room for improvement.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
