I would actually question the point in this function to start with: The
decision whether to call mdelay() or msleep() should only be based on
whether you are allowed to sleep in the caller context. The idea of


	cond_resched();
	mdelay(ms);

sets off alarm bells, and I would always replace that with msleep().
