X-Git-Tag: next-20120822~1^2~44

drivers/scsi/atp870u.c: fix bad use of udelay

The ACARD driver calls udelay() with a value > 2000, which leads to
to the following compilation error on ARM:
  ERROR: "__bad_udelay" [drivers/scsi/atp870u.ko] undefined!
  make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1

This is because udelay is defined on ARM, roughly speaking, as

	#define udelay(n) ((n) > 2000 ? __bad_udelay() : \
		__const_udelay((n) * ((2199023U*HZ)>>11)))

The argument to __const_udelay is the number of jiffies to wait divided by
4, but this does not work unless the multiplication does not overflow, and
that is what the build error is designed to prevent.  The intended
behavior can be achieved by using mdelay to call udelay multiple times in
a loop.
