Sounds like you're generalizing "EC_SPI_RECOVERY_TIME_NS" from the
cros EC code. That code actually keeps track of the end of the last
transfer and only delays as much as needed.

Also note that time is in NS, which seems like a more appropriate time
scale. Even if the hardware you're talking to needs many milliseconds
to recover, there might be some that need only a few ns.

As mentioned in the other patch, some of your code is missing and is
in patch #1.
