I do not understand. The regmap_read_poll_timeout() is a macro which unrolls in the very similar loop you have now in the code. What prevents it from using it? I think there is a big misunderstanding about the parameters of that macro. delay_us (must be small enough), timeout_us can be any long. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
