ah, i see - you changed __delay to always be loop-based. That is quite
incorrect.
but i think there is a generic way to solve this: just busy-poll
->read_cycles(). I.e. move __delay into the generic code too. This means
even more architecture-specific code would be consolidated, which is
always good.
