This patch to ni_mio_common.c changes a simple while loop to a timeout,
which is preferred.

I removed the extra counter variable this time. Greg, you mentioned that I
could just look at the time that has expired to far, and exit and error out if
that exceeds a limit. Right now I'm just tracking how many times udelay is
called, since that seems to conform more to other timeouts in this file, but
did you instead want me to use some time function to keep track of actual real
time that expires?
Thanks,
Chase Southwood
2: Changed from simple clean-up to swapping a timeout in for a while loop.
3: Removed extra counter variable, and added error checking.
