From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz bzolnier@gmail.com Subject: [PATCH] ali5451: fix timeout handling in snd_ali_{codecs,timer}_ready()
Modify loops in such way that the register value is checked also after the timeout condition, just in case the heavy interrupt load etc. caused the thread to sleep for the time period exceeding the timeout value.
While at it remove an extra ALI_STIMER read from snd_ali_stimer_ready().
