Theoretically it would make sense, I believe the delay call should really
be part of the set_power callback.  I think it is safe to decrease the
delay value now, the boards using that driver have been dropped with commit

commit ca9143501c30a2ce5886757961408488fac2bb4c
ARM: EXYNOS: Remove unused board files

As far as I am concerned you can do whatever you want with that delay
call, remove it or decrease value, whatever helps to stop triggering
warnings from the static analysis tools.
