omap_crtc_wait_pending() waits until the config changes have been taken
into use, usually at next vblank. The wait-timeout used is 50ms, which
usually is enough, but in some rare cases not.

As time wait-timeout is just a safety measure for cases where something
is broken, we can just as well increase the timeout considerably.

This patch makes the timeout 250ms.

Hi Tomi,

Thank you for the patch.

Would it make sense to capture this in a comment in the code ?

Apart from that,

I added a comment:

/*
 * timeout is set to a "sufficiently" high value, which should cover
 * a single frame refresh even on slower displays.
