    drivers/spi: Reduce the per loop delay of spi_flash_cmd_poll_bit()
    
    At the end of some SPI operations the SPI device needs to be polled
    to determine if it is done with the operation. For SPI data writes
    the predicted time of that operation could be less than 10us.
    The current per loop delay of 500us is adding too much delay.
    This change replaces the delay(x) in the do-while loop with a
    timer so that the actual timeout value won't be lengthened by the
    delay of reading the SPI device.
