That's bogus. blk_delay_queue() already takes msecs, not jiffies.

Also, do we really need to delay every unplug like this? It seems sad.
A 3ms delay is a long time these days - admittedly most people
hopefully use ATA these days if they have an SSD or something, but
still..

The ATA code contains several other bogus delays btw. So out of the box
unless you are using AHCI you are continually running small pointless
delays every command issued.
