This will often give you less than the requested timeout if the
requested timeout is not an exact multiple of
ARIZONA_REG_POLL_DELAY_MS. We should never give less timeout than
requested although more is always going to be fine.

I will have a look see if I can find it.

Yes apologies my fault here, we really should be applying the
adjustment to the maximum not the minimum here. I don't see a
problem with the wide range, getting more timeout than we asked
for is never going to be a problem but less is. I will respin.
