Subject: [PATCH v2] Revert "char: pcmcia: cm4000_cs: Replace mdelay with usleep_range in set_protocol"

This reverts commit be826ada52f1fcabed5b5217c94609ebf5967211.

The function monitor_card() is a timer handler that runs in an
atomic context, but it calls usleep_range() that can sleep.
As a result, the sleep-in-atomic-context bugs will happen.
The process is shown below:

    (atomic context)
monitor_card()
  set_protocol()
    usleep_range() //sleep

The origin commit c1986ee9bea3 ("[PATCH] New Omnikey Cardman
4000 driver") works fine.

Fixes: be826ada52f1 ("char: pcmcia: cm4000_cs: Replace mdelay with usleep_range in set_protocol")
