Calls to udelay are not preemtable by userspace so userspace
applications experience a large (~200us) latency when running on core
0. Instead usleep_range can be used to be more friendly to userspace
since it is preemtable. This is due to udelay using busy-wait loops
while usleep_rang uses hrtimers instead. It is recommended to use
udelay when the delay is <10us since at that precision overhead of
usleep_range hrtimer setup causes issues. However, the replaced calls
are for 50us and 100us so this should not be not an issue.

Reasonable. Do you have any open bug or other reference describe this
problem?

Can you explain why shortening the delay is acceptable here?

Is there a reason for indenting the paragraph. (I guess, you did `git
show` or `git log -p` and copied the message?) Anyway, please remove
whitespace in the front, if there is no reason.
Also, it looks like you ran benchmarks, so what is the delay for
userspace applications with your changes?

Maybe it's not.
This patch is causing speed / duplex tests to fail on several of my test systems. Specifically a Lenova laptop with an 82577 and a NUC with an i218 (though that does not mean it is limited to those or that it's not related to the individual link partner.)
In both cases they "blow up" when attempting to link at 10 Mb with a Call Trace on the console / log and a watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#X stuck appearing in the current login session. The simplest way to produce the crash is simply load the interface and attempt to bring it up with the link partner configured to 10 Mb half (force or autoneg) or forced to 10 Mb full (autoneg to 10 Mb full did not blow up.) The problem is also appearing at some, but not all 100 Mb speeds and duplexes. 100 Mb also crashes, apparently with the same pattern. With the link partner set to 100 Mb half Autoneg on, 100 Mb half forced and 100 Mb full forced the system crashes, 100 Full autoneg seems to work fine.
The call trace repeats every 30 seconds, is captured in the log and looks a lot like this:
