I was trying different values, but forgot to > update the commit message. :-) I tested series on mmci, sdmmc variant with/out MMC_CAP_WAIT_WHILE_BUSY and it seems OK yes, I reviewing the other patch of series but for this patch is OK.

In mmc_poll_for_busy() we loop continuously, either by sending a CMD13 or by invoking the ->card_busy() host ops, as to detect when the card stops signaling busy. This behaviour is problematic as it may cause CPU hogging, especially when the busy signal time reaches beyond a few ms. Let's fix the issue by adding a throttling mechanism, that inserts a usleep_range() in between the polling attempts. The sleep range starts at 16-32us, but increases for each loop by a factor of 2, up until the range reaches ~32-64ms. In this way, we are able to keep the loop fine-grained enough for short busy signaling times, while also not hogging the CPU for longer times. Note that, this change is inspired by the similar throttling mechanism that we already use for mmc_do_erase().
