3.2.64-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Hellstrom <[email protected]>

commit f01ea0c3d9db536c64d47922716d8b3b8f21d850 upstream.

The code waiting for fifo idle was incorrect and could possibly spin
forever under certain circumstances.
