The MSCC MIIM MDIO driver uses a waiting logic to wait for the MDIO bus to be ready to accept next commands. It does so by polling the BUSY status bit which indicates the MDIO bus has completed all pending operations. This can take time, and the controller supports writing the next command as soon as there are no pending commands (which happens while the MDIO bus is busy completing its current command). This patch implements this improved logic by adding an helper to poll the PENDING status bit, and by adjusting where we should wait for the bus to not be busy or to not be pending.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
