This doesn't quite parse correctly to me.
Let's say it this way:
Some old crusty CPUs need an extra delay that slows down
booting. See the comment above 'init_udelay' for details. Newer
CPUs don't need the delay.
Right now, for Intel, Family 6 and only Family 6 skips the
delay. That leaves out both the Family 15 (Pentium 4s) and brand
new Family 18/19 models.
The omission of Family 15 (Pentium 4s) seems like an oversight
and 18/19 do not need the delay.
Skip the delay on all Intel processors Family 6 and beyond.
Is there anything wrong there?
