The problem is specific for Rockchip platform.
Also, 1 ms is long time.
The best way is that your hardware engineers find the root cause.
I cannot understand why your engineers cannot find the root cause. :-(

Then, when loop time happens on Exynos platform, it will take long time
to return error.

Sorry, I don't like your patch.

The problem happens because of Rockchip platform.
So, you need to add workaround for only Rockchip platform.

Just add new DT property and new variable for the value for wait time.
When, the probe is called, new wait time value is read from Rockchip DT file.
Then, the new wait time value can be written to the new variable.

    new DT property: wait-time-aux
    new variable: wait_time_aux


If ( ) // New DT 
    wait_time_aux = New DT;
else 
    wait_time_aux = 10;


>  		usleep_range(10, 11);

If there is NO  new wait time value from DT file, the default value '10' is
used for sleep.

But, if there is new wait time value from DT file, new wait time value
can be used for sleep.

                 usleep_range(dp->wait_time_aux, dp->wait_time_aux + 1);

What I want to say is that there should be NO effect on Exynos platform,
because of the hardware bug of Rockchip platform.
