[PATCH 5.4 098/214] media: gpio-ir-tx: improve precision of transmitted signal due to scheduling
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Sep 01 2020 - 12:30:03 EST
From: Sean Young <sean@xxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit ea8912b788f8144e7d32ee61e5ccba45424bef83 ]
usleep_range() may take longer than the max argument due to scheduling,
especially under load. This is causing random errors in the transmitted
IR. Remove the usleep_range() in favour of busy-looping with udelay().
