Having a loop with a counter is no timing guarentee for timing accuracy or compiler optimizations. For e.g. the same loop counter which runs when the MPU is running at 600MHz will timeout in around half the time when running at 1GHz. or the example where GCC 4.5 compiles with different optimization compared to GCC 4.4. use a udelay(10) to ensure we have a predictable delay. use an emperical number - 100000 uSec ~= 1sec for a worst case timeout. This should never happen, and is adequate imaginary condition for us to fail with timeout.
