What about SMP? Spinlocks are mostly necessary for the SMP support, their tole isn't limited to disabling interrupts...
Thus, we can simply remove it which is a preparation for further refactoring. While here, rename the timeout variable to time_left which is way more readable. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
