Ofcourse the total delay is non-deterministic. Besides, there is no
hard limit on the amount of time we want to wait on lrsync. And this
non-deterministic delay comes into picture only when the I2S is
broken. It is second best option to simply hanging.
Total wait period is _atleast_ what we want, as is mentioned in the changelog.

Besides, i think we can do without the cpu_relax(), no?
