The busy status bit may never de-assert if number of programmed skip
bits is incorrect, resulting in a kernel hang because the bit is polled
endlessly in the code. Fix it by adding timeout for the bit-polling.
This problem is reproducible by setting the data_bit_offset field of
the HEVC slice params to a wrong value by userspace.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
