pmdomain: bcm: bcm2835-power: Increase ASB control timeout

Assigner: Linux
Reserved: 09.03.2026 Published: 24.04.2026 Updated: 24.04.2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

pmdomain: bcm: bcm2835-power: Increase ASB control timeout

The bcm2835_asb_control() function uses a tight polling loop to wait for the ASB bridge to acknowledge a request. During intensive workloads, this handshake intermittently fails for V3D's master ASB on BCM2711, resulting in "Failed to disable ASB master for v3d" errors during runtime PM suspend. As a consequence, the failed power-off leaves V3D in a broken state, leading to bus faults or system hangs on later accesses.

As the timeout is insufficient in some scenarios, increase the polling timeout from 1us to 5us, which is still negligible in the context of a power domain transition. Also, replace the open-coded ktime_get_ns()/ cpu_relax() polling loop with readl_poll_timeout_atomic().
