advk_pcie_wait_pio() can be called while holding a spinlock (from
pci_bus_read_config_dword()), then depends on jiffies in order to
timeout while polling on PIO state registers. In the case the PIO
transaction failed, the timeout will never happen and will also cause
the cpu to stall.

This decrements a variable and wait instead of using jiffies.

Hello Remi,

Thanks for the new iteration!

So this changes the timeout from 1ms to just 20us, a division by 50
from the previous timeout value. From my measurements, it could
sometime take up to 6us from a single PIO read operation to complete,
which is getting close to the 20us timeout.

Shouldn't PIO_RETRY_CNT be kept at 500, so that we keep using a 1ms
timeout ?

Damn. You right of course, sorry about that.

Thanks
