That is a long time to wait with interrupts disabled. You probably
should release the spinlock and enable interrupts during the handshake.

Have you seen any errors with the current 1000 us value? If you
haven't, there's no reason to change the code.

Yes, I have some error -110(-ETIMEDOUT) with the current 1000us value. When I set the value 2000us, it is ok.
