I'm not sure, my main justification was simply that we currently do it
in ide-test for send_dma_request()

I don't think yielding/sleeping is too big a deal since we do a blocking
read() on each iteration which i assume will result in a yield while the
inb is being processed by qemu. Timeouts might be nice thing to add later
though. What about something like this?
inb_wait(addr, testfn, opaque, timeout) {
while (timeout == -1 || timeout-- > 0) {
val = inb(addr);
if (testfn(val, opaque)) {
return val;
}
usleep(1000);
}
abort()
}
It's not particularly precise, but for imposing a rough limit it should
work.
