Tobias Waldekranz bd4b6397fa net: mvmdio: Avoid excessive sleeps in polled mode 
[ Upstream commit 7dd12fe346 ]

Before this change, when operating in polled mode, i.e. no IRQ is
available, every individual C45 access would be hit with a 150us sleep
after the bus access.

For example, on a board with a CN9130 SoC connected to an MV88X3310
PHY, a single C45 read would take around 165us:

    root@infix:~$ mdio f212a600.mdio-mii mmd 4:1 bench 0xc003
    Performed 1000 reads in 165ms

By replacing the long sleep with a tighter poll loop, we observe a 10x
increase in bus throughput:

    root@infix:~$ mdio f212a600.mdio-mii mmd 4:1 bench 0xc003
    Performed 1000 reads in 15ms

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
