[PATCH v1] rtc: mpfs: fix counter upload completion condition

From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley at microchip.com>
The condition that needs to be checked for upload completion is the
UPLOAD bit in the completion register going low. The original iterations
of this driver used a do-while and this was converted to a
read_poll_timeout() during upstreaming without the condition being
inverted as it should have been.
I suspect that this went unnoticed until now because a) the first read
was done when the bit was still set, immediately completing the
read_poll_timeout() and b) because the RTC doesn't hold time when power
is removed from the SoC reducing its utility (I for one keep it
disabled). If my first suspicion was true when the driver was
upstreamed, it's not true any longer though, hence the detection of the
problem.
