+Subject: spi: double time out tolerance
+
+The generic SPI code calculates how long the issued transfer would take
+and adds 100ms in addition to the timeout as tolerance. On my 500 MHz
+Lantiq Mips SoC I am getting timeouts from the SPI like this when the
+system boots up:
+
+m25p80 spi32766.4: SPI transfer timed out
+blk_update_request: I/O error, dev mtdblock3, sector 2
+SQUASHFS error: squashfs_read_data failed to read block 0x6e
+
+After increasing the tolerance for the timeout to 200ms I haven't seen
+these SPI transfer time outs any more.
+The Lantiq SPI driver in use here has an extra work queue in between,
+which gets triggered when the controller send the last word and the
+hardware FIFOs used for reading and writing are only 8 words long.
