There is a situation where after THALT is set high, TGO stays high as
well. Because jiffies are never updated, as we are in a context with
interrupts disabled, we never exit that loop and have a deadlock.
That deadlock was noticed on a sama5d4 device that stayed locked for days.
Use retries instead of jiffies so that the timeout really works and we do
not have a deadlock anymore.

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 reStructuredText 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.
