The timeout when waiting for the PRE safe window is rather short, as
normally we would only need to wait a few dozen usecs for the problematic
scanline region to pass and we don't want to spin too long in case
something goes wrong. This however mixes badly with preemption, as we
can easily get scheduled away from the CPU for a longer time than our
timeout, in which case we would hit a spurious timeout and wrongly skip
the PRE update.
Instead of disabling preemption across the wait loop, potentially
impacting the overall system latency, use a wait loop with a fixed
max number of iterations, so time spent away from the CPU is not
accounted against the timeout budget.
