Indeed without this patch the timeout error path is only ever chosen if
the busy bit happened to flip exactly in the last iteration of the loop.

Instead of just calling usleep_range(2, 4) up to 500000 times in this
open coded loop, this should be replaced with a single call to
readl_poll_timeout() though.
