From: Werner Almesberger <werner@xxxxxxxxxxxx> When timer ticks are disabled when calling sound/soc/s3c24xx/s3c24xx-i2s.c:s3c24xx_snd_lrsync and the LR signal never happens, we loop forever. This has been observed in the following call chain: snd_pcm_common_ioctl1 -> snd_pcm_action_lock_irq -> snd_pcm_action_single -> snd_pcm_do_resume -> soc_pcm_trigger -> s3c24xx_i2s_trigger The patch below changes the timeout mechanism to use udelay, which doesn't need timer ticks.
