[Skiboot] [PATCH 3/4] p8i2c: Use calculated poll_interval when booting OPAL

Stewart Smith stewart at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Wed Nov 23 16:46:01 AEDT 2016


Otherwise we'd default to 2seconds (TIMER_POLL) during boot on
chips with a functional i2c interrupt, leading to slow i2c
during boot (or hitting timeouts instead).
