Bootloader firmware doesn't implement DOWNLOAD_START or DOWNLOAD_PACKET in a non-blocking way. It will stretch the clock of the first status byte read until the operation is complete. Polling for the status is not really necessary since it will always succed on the first try. Replace polling code with a simple single byte read to simplify things.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
