My understanding is that the original patch resulted in trying a 
max udelay(16). The new one does usleep_range(16, 32). That's a minimum 16 
max 32 - so the fact that it stops read failures means the added delay is 
present and does help.

Well the send_byte changes are not necessary for fixing my problem - I 
only converted it because of usleep_range() primarily. What happens if you 
drop the send_byte() part of the patch and test with only the wait_read() 
changes? I would be very surprised if that caused write or read failures.
