the patch appears to not have dev_err() references, were they
removed? see below

this emits a message that an error has occured, but doesn't tell
where it occured -- can you dev_err() here to make the message
even more helpful?

this logic always returns "timed out" when the ready flag is not
seen, even in the case of read errors -- can you "preset" the
error code with "timed out", and update it with something more
appropriate before returning when other errors are seen?

though this is an internal helper, and callers may not tell the
situations apart in the first place, so this might be a minor nit
