The bcm2835_asb_control() function uses a tight polling loop to wait
for the ASB bridge to acknowledge a request. During intensive workloads,
this handshake intermittently fails for V3D's master ASB on BCM2711,
resulting in "Failed to disable ASB master for v3d" errors during
runtime PM suspend. As a consequence, the failed power-off leaves V3D in
a broken state, leading to bus faults or system hangs on later accesses.

As the timeout is insufficient in some scenarios, increase the polling
timeout from 1us to 5us, which is still negligible in the context of a
power domain transition. Also, replace the open-coded ktime_get_ns()/
cpu_relax() polling loop with readl_poll_timeout_atomic().
personally I would have moved all readl_poll_timeout_atomic changes in 
the second patch, to avoid possible conflicts in stable. But no strong 
opinion about this.
TBH personally, I also agree. But, as I don't have a strong opinion
about it, I prioritized addressing Ulf's feedback in the last version
[1].
