I have posted similar patch some time back. 
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.msm/2119.

Would you like to comment on that?

Thanks,
Sujit

- I believe we should forget about jiffies, HZ and other similar obsolete
   timekeeping stuff;

- I have no ideas where did you get 'most typical' 20 ms. MMC subsystem uses
   mmc_delay() with two compile-time fixed values 1 and 10 ms, with the only
   exception of card-dependent sleep/awake timeout. I was unable to find a table
   with typical values, but it's rounded up to >= 1 ms anyway.

Hi Antipov,

Sorry for the delayed response. Please find some comments below:

The main aim of my patch was to fix mmc_delay() to give accurate delay.
You might want to refer to Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt 
(Section: SLEEPING FOR ~USECS OR SMALL MSECS) to know why usleep_range() 
must be used instead of msleep for delays less than 20ms (or more 
accurately two jiffies, since in HZ=100 systems this comes to 20ms).

Also, in the documentation it is suggested that for delays greater than 
10ms+ use msleep(). Although MMC subsystem doesn't use mmc_delay() for 
greater than 10ms today but I guess we should keep it for future purpose 
and just not have only usleep_range() as your patch did.

Shouldn't you add a proper patch description and a signed-off-by line?

Anyway, I think the change is good. On systems with multiple MMC devices
the boot/probe can spend 100-200 ms alone just doing busylooping delays. I
think e.g. in mmc_rescan() the code uses frequently mmc_delay(10).
