Agreed the systems cannot do that, but the main reason of replacing
mdelay(1) with usleep_range(1000, 1001) was since  pci_epc_raise_irq()
calls mutex_lock() and then this function rcar_pcie_ep_assert_intx(),
so we can assume this function also can sleep. And, according to
Documentation/timers/timers-howto.rst, we should use usleep_range()
instead of mdelay().
