platform/apple-gmux: Fix MMIO interface
This patch updates the apple-gmux MMIO helpers to sleep for 1ms per poll
iteration in gmux_mmio_wait(), check for wait timeouts before performing MMIO
reads and writes, and wait before writing in gmux_mmio_write32().

[Severity: High]
Does this early return in gmux_mmio_read8() in
drivers/platform/x86/apple-gmux.c leave gmux_data->index_lock locked when the
second gmux_mmio_wait(gmux_data) call times out and returns 0?
The same early return while holding gmux_data->index_lock also appears in
gmux_mmio_read32() below, which will cause subsequent GMIO accesses to
deadlock on mutex_lock(&gmux_data->index_lock).

[Severity: High]
Can gmux_mmio_read32() and gmux_mmio_read8() in
drivers/platform/x86/apple-gmux.c return an uninitialized val if the initial
gmux_mmio_wait(gmux_data) call times out and returns 0?
In both functions, val is declared without an initializer and is only
assigned inside the if (gmux_mmio_wait(gmux_data)) block before being
returned after mutex_unlock(&gmux_data->index_lock). Could val be initialized
to 0 (and returned after unlocking on both timeout paths)?
