The iopoll macros also allow comparisons like < > !=, more complicated

Granted, the only existing example I am aware of is
drivers/dma/qcom/hidma_ll.c, which calls a static function in
readl_poll_wait_timeout, that evaluates to ((read == 1) || (read == 2)).

There's a similar condition in rt5659_headset_detect, although that may
be dismissed as it's using snd_soc_read and variable delays:
        while (i < 5) {
                msleep(sleep_time[i]);
                val = snd_soc_read(codec, RT5659_EJD_CTRL_2) & 0x0003;
                i++;
                if (val == 0x1 || val == 0x2 || val == 0x3)
                        break;
        }

A potential user for an inequality condition is
drivers/media/tuners/it913x.c, which has a loop where the condition is
(read != 0):
                #define TIMEOUT 50
                timeout = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(TIMEOUT);
                while (!time_after(jiffies, timeout)) {
                        ret = regmap_read(dev->regmap, 0x80ec82, &utmp);
                        if (ret)
                                goto err;

                        if (utmp)
                                break;
                }

Even if by far the most common cases can be covered as you suggest,
I would find it useful to keep this the same as the other
readx_poll_wait_timeout variants.
