[PATCH 3/5] hwmon: applesmc: Prolong status wait

[Henrik Rydberg]

The time to wait for a status change while reading or writing to the
SMC ports is a balance between read reliability and system
performance. The current setting yields rougly three errors in a
thousand when simultaneously reading three different temperature
values on a Macbook Air. This patch increases the setting to a value
yielding roughly one error in ten thousand, with no noticable system
performance degradation.
