The function mdelay in it can be replaced with msleep, to reduce busy wait.

You submitted an identical patch a week earlier:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10137671/

How is this different? Also always add version number to the patch so that the
maintainers can follow the changes easily:

https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches#patch_version_missing

https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches#changelog_missing

I had negative comments on one of those due to the possibility of msleep(2) extending as long as 20 msec. Until the author, or someone else, can test that this is OK, then the mdelay(2) can only be replaced with usleep_range(2000, 3000).

NACK for both.
