It's a memory mapped register.  We are waiting for one of the display related
bits to go low, so it's the GPU that would be setting that bit.  The timeout is
in the driver.  We eventually drop out of the loop in the atom interpretor if
we get stuck after a certain number of seconds.

You can dump the mmio registers.
