Thomas Gleixner a7f4255f90 x86: Derandom delay_tsc for 64 bit
Commit f0fbf0abc0 ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted
delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit.  The reason is
that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and
delay_64.c.  Though the subtle difference of the result was:

 static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops)
 {
-	unsigned bclock, now;
+	unsigned long bclock, now;

Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the
TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64
bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when
bclock is read, because the following check

       if ((now - bclock) >= loops)
       	  	break;

evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0
because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in
0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops
value. That explains Tvortkos observation:

"Because I am seeing udelay(500) (_occasionally_) being short, and
 that by delaying for some duration between 0us (yep) and 491us."

Make those variables explicitely u32 again, so this works for both 32
and 64 bit.
