staging: rts5208: Replace udelay() with usleep_range()
PATCH 1/1 staging: rts5208: Replace udelay() with usleep_range()
udelay(unsigned long usec) replaced with usleep_range(unsigned long min, unsigned long max) to prevent trigger by interrupt in specified duration.Also provides better scheduling,power management for drivers.

Thanks for the patch. A few picky comments. In English, it is more readable to put some space after punctuation. It is also not necessary to indent the log message.
Also, it would be good to explain how you chose the upper limit.

It is _required_ to explain this. This change comes up every so often, and I keep rejecting it as no one knows what value to put here that will correctly work. So I recommend just leaving it alone unless you hav the hardware and can test this type of change properly.
thanks,

Thank you for feedback Julia.I will keep in mind all these while writing
next patch.
I replaced udelay() with usleep_range to improve the responsiveness. I
considered these values
to be equivalent for values by udelay(). But as mentioned by Greg , since
this depends on response
time of hardware and no exact value can be decided.

Thank you for feedback Greg. I understood the hardware dependency for this
driver.
Is it possible to remove this delay ? This driver needs DMA accessibility
in Linux.
So if one has to develop PCIe driver for any processor(intel, altera),
there should be
different driver for each platform.
Thanks,
Mamta Shukla

It was probably added on purpose, why do you think it can be removed?

What do you mean by this? What does DMA have to do with this driver?

No, that is not how Linux drivers are written. They should work on all hardware platforms that the hardware can be plugged into. Any platform-specific issues are handled in bus-specific or architecture specific drivers.

The selection b/w udelay() Vs usleep_range() always gets fuzzy. And it is often advised to only play with these if you have the hardware and can the test/verfiy the change.
Selections also depends on Atomic Vs Non-atomic context ...
