[PATCH] e1000: changed some expensive calls of udelay to usleep_range

From: nxf23276
Date: Tue Aug 22 2017 - 17:03:12 EST


Calls to udelay are not preemtable by userspace so userspace
applications experience a large (~200us) latency when running on core
0. Instead usleep_range can be used to be more friendly to userspace
since it is preemtable. This is due to udelay using busy-wait loops
while usleep_rang uses hrtimers instead. It is recommended to use
udelay when the delay is <10us since at that precision overhead of
usleep_range hrtimer setup causes issues. However, the replaced calls
are for 50us and 100us so this should not be not an issue.
