In the configure_pe and configure_bridge RTAS calls, the spec states
that values of 9900-9905 can be returned, indicating that software
should delay for 10^x (where x is the last digit, i.e. 990x)
milliseconds and attempt the call again. Currently, the kernel doesn't
know about this, and respecting it fixes some PCI failures when the
hypervisor is busy.

The delay is capped at 0.2 seconds.
