The problem is that these are the delays used in the original driver
that we've been writing the specs from. We don't know what they're
for or why they're so long. We don't know if reducing the delay
will cause issues on some hardware and work fine on others. Without
the actual specs from Broadcom, it's hard to say what's excessive
and what's not and whether changing it will break the driver.
