Hm, thanks, that's a good observation -- and possibly correct.


The reason that I used (1) was that I looked at the loop:

for (i = 0; i < MAX_CONFIG_WAIT; i++) {
if (!(readl(c->vaddr + SA5_DOORBELL) & CFGTBL_ChangeReq))
break;
/* delay and try again */
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
schedule_timeout(msecs_to_jiffies(1));
}

and this:
/* How long to wait (in milliseconds) for board to go into simple mode */
#define MAX_CONFIG_WAIT 30000

and then I tried to make the loop run for a max. of 30000 milliseconds.

Mike M., any comments here?
