Sometimes the pipeline clear fails, and when it does, having a hang in
kernel is ugly. The timeout gives us a nice error message. Note that
this shouldn't actually hang, ever. It only hangs if there is a mistake
in the config, and the timeout is only useful when debugging.

This is actually an item on my to-do list.  All of the waits
for GSI completions should have timeouts.  The only reason it
hasn't been implemented already is that I would like to be sure
all paths that could have a timeout actually have a reasonable
recovery.

I'd say an error message after a timeout is better than a hung
task panic, but if this does time out, I'm not sure the state
of the hardware is well-defined.
