How close to 2ms did you need in your trial and error testing? I'm
wondering if we should increase it further in case this might still
trigger occasionally?

kbase seems to have a 5s (5000ms!) timeout before it will actually
complain. But equally it doesn't busy wait on the registers in the same
way as panfrost, so the impact to the rest of the system of a long wait
is less.

But 2ms doesn't sound an unreasonable timeout so:

As Angelo points out the tiler probably doesn't need such a long
timeout, but I can't see the harm in consistency so I'm happy with this
change. If my memory of the hardware is correct then the tiler power off
actually does very little and so I wouldn't expect it to take very long.
