  * Copyright (C) 1993 Linus Torvalds
  *
  * Delay routines, using a pre-computed "loops_per_jiffy" value.
+ *
+ * Please note that ndelay(), udelay() and mdelay() may return early for
+ * several reasons:
+ *  1. computed loops_per_jiffy too low (due to the time taken to
+ *     execute the timer interrupt.)
+ *  2. cache behaviour affecting the time it takes to execute the
+ *     loop function.
+ *  3. CPU clock rate changes.
+ *
+ * Please see this thread:
