Why not just remove readval completely as in other cases?

And the loop can be turned into ndelay:

         /*
          * Force at least 170ns delay before clearing
          * reset bit. Each read from LCR takes at least
          * 30ns so 10 times for 300ns to be safe.
          */
         for(i=0;i<10;i++)
                 readval = *MiscCtrl;
