MinGnt

MinGnt specifies, in 250 ns increments, how long a burst period the
adapter requires when operating as a bus master. The value for
MinGnt is stored in the ConfigParm word in EEPROM. ST201-based
PCI systems return the value 10 in this field. This assumes a 33 MHz
bus (30 ns clock period), 1 clock for address phase, 10 clock latency to
first data phase, then no wait states for the 64 remaining data phases.

(1 + 10 + 64)30ns = 2.25us, rounded up to 2.5us; 2.5us/250 ns = 10
