drivers: libata-core: Use usleep_range() instead of msleep() for short sleeps (<20 ms)
Since msleep() may sleep longer than intended time for values less than 20ms, this patch allows the use of usleep_range for waits less that 20ms. usleep_range is a finer precision implementation of msleep and is designed to be a drop-in replacement for udelay where a precise sleep/busy-wait is unnecessary. More details can be found at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/3/250 and in Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt. This change has been done to improve the performace in PIO6 mode which is used by viking flash.
