[Qemu-devel] [PULL 4/4] ide-test: fix timeouts

[John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com>]

Use explicit timeouts instead of trying to approximate it by counting
the cumulative duration of nsleep calls.

In practice, the timeout if inb() dwarfed the nsleep delays, and as a
result the real timeout value became a lot larger than 5 seconds.

So: change the semantics from "Not sooner than 5 seconds" to "no more
than 5 seconds" to ensure we don't hang the tester for very long.
