From d2a632a8a11756197deb1341bbb09c09abaf20ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mateusz Jończyk Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2022 22:50:09 +0100 Subject: rtc: mc146818-lib: reduce RTC_UIP polling period Waiting 1ms every time is not necessary, for example on some AMD boxes the RTC_UIP bit is documented as being high for around 270 microseconds in some cases [1], which agreed with experiments on an SB710 southbridge. So 100us seems optimal. This in preparation for mach_get_cmos_time() refactoring. The functions mc146818_get_time() and mach_get_cmos_time() in arch/x86/kernel/rtc.c perform the same function and the code is duplicated. mach_get_cmos_time() is busy waiting for the RTC_UIP bit to clear, so make mc146818_get_time() more similar to it by reducing the polling period.
