This driver uses mdelay(1) in other places, so I just used it for the sake
of consistency. And as this code runs just one time on boot, there's not
really much harm in doing delay with busy loop instead of sleeping.

Anyway, I agree that sleeping is better than busy waiting in general, so
I can respin this patch using usleep_range, or else prepare incremental
patch on top of this, which will change all mdelay in driver to usleep_range.
