2: Changed from simple clean-up to swapping a timeout in for a while loop.

3: Removed extra counter variable, and added error checking.

4: No longer using counter variable, using jiffies instead.

5: udelay for 10u, instead of 1u.

I preferred the earlier udelay(1) from your PATCH v4, but I think it's 
even better to replace it with:


cpu_relax();

You might also need:

#include
