The logic tries to read in a loop for 10 times with a sleep of 500usec between each reads.
Finally after the 10th iteration for the last time the register is read again and the status is returned.

I checked this earlier. The reason for not opting this is this function is its
interrupt-on-read, but we need a polling read with timeout.
