timer: Added usleep[_range] timer
usleep[_range] are finer precision implementations of msleep and are designed to be drop-in replacements for udelay where a precise sleep / busy-wait is unnecessary. They also allow an easy interface to specify slack when a precise (ish) wakeup is unnecessary to help minimize wakeups Signed-off-by: Patrick Pannuto <ppannuto@codeaurora.org> Cc: akinobu.mita@gmail.com Cc: sboyd@codeaurora.org Acked-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> LKML-Reference: <4C44CDD2.1070708@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
