spi: change post transfer udelay() to usleep_range() for long delays
The spi_transfer parameter delay_usecs allows specifying a time to wait after transferring a spi message. This wait can be quite long - some devices, such as some Chrome OS ECs, require as much as 2000 usecs after a SPI transaction, before it can respond. (cf: arch/arm64/boot/dts/nvidia/tegra132-norrin.dts: google,cros-ec-spi-msg-delay = <2000> ) Blocking a CPU for 2 msecs in a busy loop like this doesn't seem very friendly to other processes, so change the blocking delay to a sleep to allow other things to use this CPU (or so it can sleep). This should be safe to do, because: (a) A post-transaction delay like this is always specified as a minimum wait time (b) A delay here is most likely not very time sensitive, as it occurs after all data has been transferred (c) This delay occurs in a non-critical section of the spi worker thread so where it is safe to sleep. Two caveats: 1) To avoid penalizing short delays, still use udelay for delays < 10us. 2) usleep_range() very often picks the upper bound, an upper bounds 10% should be plenty.
