Yes. It may not be a good idea, however in our experiment it never hit
maximum retry count.
I just converted usleep_range to mdelay keeping min time limitation as
it is, though I
am not sure, how do we arrived on these numbers in original code, may be
Joao Pinto
from Synopsys have some idea, I will try to do few experiment and try to
find out what
is sufficient minimum time in our hardware for these mdelay.

Thanks,
