As I understand msleep() will stop for a minimum of two jiffies and
that resolution is too low in systems with small HZ values (big
jiffies).
Using msleep() (with small values) in this systems will sleep for more
time than the caller expects.

I used usleep_range() because it is a finer precision implementations of msleep.

Sorry if I'm wrong or the sleep precision is not a concern in this
driver and the change doesn't add any value.

Thanks a lot.
