The problem is that the default is too small or simply that the change
is not mentioned?

For the meson8b the maximum timeout is ~8 sec whereas for meson6 is
~40 sec that's why I lowered the default from 30 to 5 sec.
I can set a different default for each SoC but at least for meson8b
the value will be always < 8 sec.

Thanks,
