[PATCH] uml: fix unreasonably long udelay

Currently we have a confused udelay implementation.

* __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64
* our implementation requires usecs as arg
* it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h

Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some
x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper.

To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed -
that's why UML seems to work most times.  Fix this with a simple udelay
implementation.
