Where do you see a delay in here?
There is no startup-delay-us value used in this patch.

wilink has always used out of band interrupt (using wlan_irq gpio).
in-band interrupts was not supported.
See section 10.5.2 in this the wl18xx hardware integration guide:

I agree that it would have been better, especially for cases such as wake 
On wlan, but again, in-band interrupt was something that was talked 
about way back but it was never implemented.
