For USB offloading situations, the AFE port start command will result in a

the USB bus is suspended, this routine would require more time to complete,
as resuming the USB bus has some overhead associated with it. Increase the
timeout to 3s to allow for sufficient time for the USB QMI stream enable
handshake to complete.

That seems worryingly large but if it's what the hardware/firmware needs
I guess there's nothing doing - even the 1s that's being replaced would
be nasty if we ever actually hit it.

I may have gone overkill with the delay, but when I measured the duration of the AFE start command it took ~1.5-2s. It has to also account for the overhead within handling the USB QMI request in the qc_audio_offload driver.

Thanks
