'limit' is a number of loops, which you now divide by 20,000?

To get uS, you could just change:

-	unsigned long limit = (loops_per_jiffy *
-				msecs_to_jiffies(MMC_TIMEOUT_MS));
+	unsigned long limit = 1000 * MMC_TIMEOUT_MS;

and make this amount of loops using udelay().

I still don't see why any of these loops could last 3.6 seconds?
Yes the __raw_readl() will add some time, but so much?
I'd like to see which value you get for 'limit' on your machine
Would PM play a role? Or cpu-freq, and 'loops_per_jiffy' isn't updated
on time?

In earlier threads, the use of udelay was disliked because it's a waste
of cpu cycles. The desired bit in SYSCTL will change, while udelay()
is still making many useless loops.
