When 'commit 9f3fc7bcddcb ("tpm: replace msleep() with usleep_range()
in TPM 1.2/2.0 generic drivers")' was upstreamed, it replaced the
msleep() calls with usleep_range(), but did not change the
granularity of the calls. They're still defined in terms of msec.
Test results show that refining the granularity further improves
the performance. We're posting this patch as an RFC to show that there
needs to be another function which allows finer granularity.
After this change, performance on a TPM 1.2 with an 8 byte
burstcount for 1000 extends improved from ~10.7sec to ~6.9sec.
