From: Martin Sperl <kernel@martin.sperl.org>

Under some circumstances the default 30 us polling limit is not optimal
and may lead to long delays because we are waiting on the interrupt
handler resulting in poor spi bus utilization.

With this patch we have the possibility to influence this policy
by making this limit configurable via a module parameters

Note that this patch relies on the effective_speed_hz patch for the
driver to be applied!
