Plans for d0049e71 ("x86: make io_delay=0xed the default")

Hi Ingo,

What are your plans for handling the x86 io_delay stuff? The current
situation is pretty confusing to someone updating their config from a
2.6.24 kernel, since arch/x86/Kconfig.debug has:

config IO_DELAY_0X80
bool "port 0x80 based port-IO delay [recommended]"

but also

choice
prompt "IO delay type"
default IO_DELAY_0XED

so the IO delay type defaults to something different than the
recommended value.

- R.
