Subject: [PATCH] spi: imx: wait_for_completion_timeout(..) for PIO transfers

In some rare cases I see the following 'task blocked' information. It
looks like the PIO transfer has some problems and never succeeds. Make
use of wait_for_completion_timeout(..) to detect this case and
return -ETIMEDOUT.

v2: remove backtrace from commit message
