I recall the reason for this change.  I found that medlay called during
interrupt context didn't work well, whereas udelay did.  Oringally when
mpt_fault_reset_work was added, this code was called using timers, which
as you know, is called as part of softirq bottom half handler.  Since
then, we converted mpt_fault_reset_work to being called using user
context work task, so really its a non-issue I guess.
