There are TH1520_PLL_LOCK_TIMEOUT_US and TH1520_PLL_STABLE_DELAY_US
defined because they're meaningful constants, either specified by TRM or
implied by vendor code, however the 5us delay is only a randomly-picked
value, as what I've mentioned before.

Anyway, I'm fine with a separate definition. So please go ahead if it
looks better to you.

Many thanks for it.
