What's more, this timeout loop (and probably many of the others) is
wrong. You need to do one last status check before declaring a timeout,
since the device may become ready while you're sleeping. It's the same
problem as we've resolved here:

Subject: "mtd: nand: check status before reporting timeout"

readl_relaxed_poll_timeout() gets this right, of course.

While we're at it: you have a stray semicolon after your function
definition.
