Old command timeout value was too small and it caused I/O errors which
led to uncompleted read/write/erase operations and filesystem errors.
Timeout adaptation fixes this issue.

Changes in sdhci_send_command() function:
- change timeout variable to static
- increase default command timeout to 100 ms
- add definition of max command timeout value,
  which can be redefined in each board config file
- wait for card ready state for max defined time
  if it doesn't exceed defined maximum or return COMM_ERR

Once successfully increased timeout value will be used in next function
call. This fix was tested on Goni, Trats, Trats2 boards by testing UMS
on MMC storage.

Changes v2:
- move global variable cmd_timeout into function sdhci_send_command()
- change condition "==" to ">=" when comparing time with timeout
- print information about timeout increasing and card busy timeout

Dear Pantelis,
You don't reply for a long time. Could you look on it at this time?

Is this a way to address people on a mailing list?

People, especially volunteers are busy with other things too.

Eventually things get merged, but not when people are being rude.

What did I wrong by contacting mmc-u-boot custodian via the mailing list?

At least for linux it is a good and common practice to "ping" 
maintainers after 2 weeks of not reply to the patch.

This passive aggressive crap might work on your mother, but not here.

Learn how open source works, and expect delays when it is conference season.
I am in contact with the core maintainers and nothing is being dropped.

That is all.
