Hi Marek,

The 10s timeout is fairly arbitrary. In other words, I pulled it out of
thin air. Can you suggest a better timeout? From a practical standpoint 10s
seemed to be much better than no timeout when I was debugging bad FPGA
images. Without a timeout I was hanging the system when the FPGA image
failed. With this timeout, we get a nice message and Linux keeps running
happily.

Thanks for the feedback,

Matthew Gerlach
