Subject: Re: [PATCH] mtd:nand: Increment IFC_TIMEOUT_MSECS for nand
controller response
Hi Ronald,
Thanks for the patch, here are a couple of comments I'd like you to
address before taking the fix.

I would rephrase a bit this paragraph with more confidence. Under heavy
load it is likely that the controller is done with its own task but the
thread unlocking the wait look is never scheduled (or not in time)
resulting in such kind of error. Maybe there is something else wrong in
the code which stalls the CPU in this case, (hence the first message).
Enlarging the timeout to 1s in this case is fine, but maybe there is
still something wrong aside.

You can trim down the traces to only show the interesting part.
Here you need a Fixes: and Cc: stable tag.

This is an unrelated debug message and should be dropped.
