Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the origin tree

Hi Linus,

After merging the origin tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

ERROR: "__bad_udelay" [drivers/staging/gma500/psb_gfx.ko] undefined!

Presumably caused by commit a87e553fabe8 ("asm-generic: delay.h fix
udelay and ndelay for 8 bit args").
drivers/staging/gma500/psb_intel_display.c has a udelay
(20000) which is explicitly disallowed by this patch.

I have added the following patch for today:

From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>
Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2011 11:13:13 +1000
Subject: [PATCH] gma500: udlay(20000) is too large

So we use mdelay(20) instead.  Fixes this build error:

ERROR: "__bad_udelay" [drivers/staging/gma500/psb_gfx.ko] undefined!
