Sigh, I wish U-Boot's code style policies weren't so rigid as to force
such a difference relative to the Linux driver.

Will that (unsigned short) make any difference? Won't it just get
promoted back to int for the computation?

If it came over from Linux this way, I'm not asking you to change it
just here, but the return; at the end is superfluous.

Timeout?
