What about:

#define loop_until_timeout(tout, op_time)                                \
     for (tout = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(write_timeout), op_time = 0; \
          op_time ? time_before(op_time, tout) : true;                   \
          usleep_range(1000, 1500), op_time = jiffies)

? Would probably need an explanation in a comment, though.
