Subject: x86: poll waiting for I/OAT DMA channel status
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=19d78a61be6dd707dcec298c486303d4ba2c840a;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

x86: poll waiting for I/OAT DMA channel status

For certain system configurations a 5 usec udelay before checking I/OAT DMA
channel status is sometimes not sufficient, resulting in a false failure
status and unnecessary freeing of channel resources.  Conversely, for many
configurations 5 usec is longer than necessary.

Loop for up to 20 usec waiting for successful status before failing.
