The delay of 200us was added to have a short wait between HW register
write and read operation. The short delay of 200us was enough for this
but the duration range is not available. So to replace udelay() of
200us with usleep_range(), I have used used range from 200, 201.

How should we handle these type of scenarios and is there any suggested
way to specify these range.
 
Should we leave this code as it is and ignore this checkpatch warning.

Please provide your suggestion/input.

Thank you.

Ajay
