When gracefully stopping the controller, the driver was continuing if
*either* RX or TX had stopped.  We need to wait for both, or the
controller could get into an invalid state.

Switched to use spin_event_timeout()

Kept the -1 timeout value, as that is the original behavior, and responding
to a timeout would require a much more substantial change, and such a change
would, at the least, require investigation of what, if anything, *can* be done.
