Better looking when the value completely occupies second line without touching
the first.

Like in the previous patch this one has hard to read timeout loops with inefficient code.

This is actually main exit condition (vs. infinite loop).

This make no sense. If you would like to have one more iteration, just spell it
explicitly.

Ditto.

Now look at the other variant:

	do {
		...do something...
		if (success)
			return 0;
		usleep(...);
	} while (time_before(...));

	return -ETIMEDOUT;

* Easy
* less LOCs
* guaranteed always to be at least one iteration
* has explicitly spelled exit condition

BUT!

In this very case you may do even better if you read iopoll.h, i.e
readl_poll_timeout() has this functionality embedded in the macro.
