mainlining shenanigans

Waiting for a CMD_SYNC to be processed involves waiting for the command queue to drain, which can take an awful lot longer than waiting for a single entry to become available. Consequently, the common timeout value of 100us has been observed to be too short on some platforms when a CMD_SYNC is issued into a queued full of TLBI commands. This patch resolves the issue by using a different (1s) timeout when waiting for the CMDQ to drain and using a simple back-off mechanism when polling the cons pointer in the absence of WFE support.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
