Since ixgbe_reset_hw_x540() goes on to msleep(100) immediately after this
busy-wait loop, this should instead be:

msleep(1);

I don't know the hw details of course, I was just going on the spec's
use of "must" when stating how long the driver should wait before
talking to the hw.  If the hw doesn't actually care, then no need for
this patch (although the spec should probably be changed to not use
"must").

Thanks!

While the Data Sheet does mention that this should take ~ 1ms, we are in a busy 
wait state so it probably isn't that big of a deal to check more frequently for 
our exit condition.  That said there are plenty of other delays later on in the 
reset path so keeping the udelay really isn't speeding things up much. :)

Also normally it isn't a good idea to reference a section number in the data 
sheet as they do seem to change with updates.  We are most likely a bit more 
safe here as it is one of the first of a list of register descriptions' and 
thus less like to move.

Since ixgbe_reset_hw_x540() goes on to msleep(100) immediately after this
busy-wait loop, this should instead be:

msleep(1);
