Hi William,

I'm not sure to fully understand your proposal here.
Could you clarify ?

regmap_read_poll_timeout() macro requires:

 * @val: Unsigned integer variable to read the value into
 * @cond: Break condition (usually involving @val)

So do you wish I introduce a macro that abstracts the condition check ?
(val & STM32_LPTIM_CMPOK_ARROK) == STM32_LPTIM_CMPOK_ARROK


Best regards,
Fabrice
