Hello Remi,

Thanks for the new iteration!

So this changes the timeout from 1ms to just 20us, a division by 50
from the previous timeout value. From my measurements, it could
sometime take up to 6us from a single PIO read operation to complete,
which is getting close to the 20us timeout.

Shouldn't PIO_RETRY_CNT be kept at 500, so that we keep using a 1ms
timeout ?
