Sorry, I can't make sense of this. The referenced commit uses the spin
loop to poll opportunistically a few times before delaying. This loop
just adds a short open-coded udelay to an exponential udelay, and it's
not really clear that that's any better than a fixed udelay (especially
as the two cases in which we poll are somewhat different).

What's wrong with simply increasing the timeout value alone?

Robin.
