CAPI: CGZIP Wrong CAPI MMIO timeout (256usec desired but 1usec default setting in cxl.ko driver)

[bugproxy]

---Problem Description---
MMIO timeout for CAPI driver is too small for CGZIP application. 1usec default should be replaced by 256usec, which prevents cxl driver output in kernel log.

---uname output---
4.2.0-34-generic

---Additional Hardware Info---
Nallatech FPGA card with CGZIP bitstream.

Machine Type = Tuleta, but also others

---Steps to Reproduce---
 Do extensive stress test using CGZIP card.

Patch for this fix has been accepted to ppc-linux git tree viz commit https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux.git/commit/?h=next&id=4aec6ec0da9c72c0fa1a5b0d1133707481347bb3

Required for gzip capi adapter for 14.04.5.
So would like the fix in 16.04, so that it can roll "naturally" in 14.04.5

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
