[RFC PATCH] x86: Add safe_udelay() and safe_msleep()

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Tue Jan 11 2011 - 20:09:19 EST



We need to use those function in early-quirk stage with code that is shared with
later stage.

for x86, normal udelay() will need to wait per_cpu(cpu_info) is allocated... that i
after smp_prepare_cpus(), because it need to use percpu.loops_per_jiffy.

Also msleep() will need to wait schedular is ready.

Try to have one early version udelay that use loops_per_jiffy directly.
and early msleep is just early delay.

This patch will set safe_udelay to early in x86 early arch code, and then init/main.c
will set them back.
