sdhci : reduce irq off latency

sdhci code got tasklets (sdhci_tasklet_card and sdhci_tasklet_finish),
that does :
{
spin_lock_irqsave

if (cond) {
sdhci_reset
sdhci_reset
}

spin_unlock_irqrestore
}

sdhci_reset {
...
while (read_reg) {
if (timeout == 0)
    break;
timeout--;
mdelay(1);
}
...
}


The problem is that sdhci_reset [1] does busy pooling (with a 
granularity of 1 ms) on a register up to a timeout of 100 ms.

With the current code, we got irq off during 2*1ms. With the attached 
patch we reduce irq off to 30 us.

Note that worst case 100 ms irq off still exist.
