If I'm not mistaken, this will change the minimum sleep time to half a second
for set lock-bit operations as well (for !XIP). Aren't those in the usec range?

The last argument to WAIT_TIMEOUT(), udelay_max, is the actual timeout.
It should have been 'udelay * HZ', i.e. it would have worked for HZ=100 but not for HZ=1000.
(The J5 datasheet says 7 seconds max clear lock-bit time, so times 10 might even be in place.)
