spi: omap2-mcspi: Improve performance waiting for CHSTAT
This reverts commit 13d515c7 (spi: omap2-mcspi: Switch to readl_poll_timeout()). The amount of time spent polling for the MCSPI_CHSTAT bits to be set on AM335x-icev2 platform is less than 1us (about 0.6us) in most cases, with or without using DMA. So, in most cases the function need not sleep. Also, setting the sleep_usecs to zero would not be optimal here because ktime_add_us() used in readl_poll_timeout() is slower compared to the direct addition used after the revert. So, it is sub-optimal to use readl_poll_timeout in this case. When DMA is not enabled, this revert results in an increase of about 27% in throughput and decrease of about 20% in CPU usage. However, the CPU usage and throughput are almost the same when used with DMA. Therefore, fix this by reverting the commit which switched to using readl_poll_timeout().
