I agree with Ville here. See below.

Before this patch, we would check the bit and then run "continue",
regardless of the state of DP_AUX_CH_CTL_DONE. With your patch, we
don't check for the _TIME_OUT bit, which means that if both _TIME_OUT
and _CTL_DONE bits are set, we will "break" instead of the old
behavior. I think Ville's point is that we should probably continue
with the old behavior, especially since this patch is just about
adding a new sleep call, and not the specific interaction of _TIME_OUT
and _CTL_DONE.

I'm not sure adding a log message here is a good idea: we're probably
going to flood dmesg on a case that is somewhat expected and
recoverable. We already print an error message in case we finish the
loop without _CTL_DONE set, so I think we're covered regarding error
printing already: just run "continue" without logging anything since
we're going to retry anyway.
