If you do _atomic, it becomes atomic. That means it does not sleep as in
TABLE_UPDATE_SLEEP_US for 10 us but spins via udelay(). The
TABLE_UPDATE_TIMEOUT_US is set to 100ms which _might_ be high.
This is probably just nitpicking (given that there are other drivers
doing the same with a greater timeout (READL_TIMEOUT_US)) so feel free
to ignore it.
