[PATCH 1/2] spi: fsi: Fix spurious timeout

[Eddie James <eajames@linux.ibm.com>]

The driver may return a timeout error even if the status register
indicates that the transfer may proceed. Fix this by restructuring
the polling loop.

Fixes: 89b35e3f2851 ("spi: fsi: Implement a timeout for polling status")

 I have one concern still, that if the kernel is very busy, it may
 schedule other work for the entire timeout period between assigning
 "end" and checking if timed out in the do/while loop... Is it worth
 worrying about this case?
