On msm8998, vblank timeouts are observed because the DSI controller is not reset properly, which ends up stalling the MDP. This is because the reset logic is not correct per the hardware documentation.
The documentation states that after asserting reset, software should wait some time (no indication of how long), or poll the status register until it returns 0 before deasserting reset.
wmb() is insufficient for this purpose since it just ensures ordering, not timing between writes. Since asserting and deasserting reset occurs on the same register, ordering is already guaranteed by the architecture, making the wmb extraneous.
Since we would define a timeout for polling the status register to avoid a possible infinite loop, lets just use a static delay of 20 ms, since 16.666 ms is the time available to process one frame at 60 fps.

Rob et al, is it possible for this to go into a 5.4-rc?

Could you please pull this out into a #define used for both in case we decide to tweak it? I don't want these 2 values to drift.
Thanks, Sean
