[alsa-devel] [PATCH 2/3] sound: usb: line6: Replace mdelay with msleep in line6_write_data

line6_write_data() is never called in atomic context.
The call chains ending up at line6_write_data() are:
[1] line6_write_data() <- toneport_setup() <- toneport_init()
<- line6_probe()
[2] line6_write_data() <- toneport_setup() <- toneport_reset_resume()
line6_probe() is called in toneport_probe(), pod_probe(), podhd_probe()
and variax_probe(), which are set as ".probe" in usb_driver structure.
toneport_reset_resume() is set as ".reset_resume" in usb_driver structure.
These functions are not called in atomic context.
Despite never getting called from atomic context, line6_write_data()
calls mdelay for busy wait.
That is not necessary and can be replaced with msleep to
avoid busy waiting.
This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
