A few experiments have shown that the minimum value is 3ms on my WGT634U
machine. I haved changed the value to 10ms in the new patch below, which
gives some margin, and added a comment.

The patch below against 2.6.23-rc1-mm2 fixes various things on the SSB
PCI core driver:
 - Correctly write the configuration register value in 
   ssb_extpci_write_config() for len = 1 or len = 2.
 - Set the PCI_LATENCY_TIMER to handle devices on the PCI bus.
 - Set the PCI arbiter control to internal.
 - Add some delay between the configuration of the PCI controller 
   and its registration.
