detect_pll_input_clock() is never called in atomic context.

detect_pll_input_clock() is only called by init_chipset_pdcnew(), which
is set as ".init_chipset" in struct ide_port_info.
This function is not called in atomic context.

Despite never getting called from atomic context, detect_pll_input_clock()
calls mdelay() to busily wait.
This is not necessary and can be replaced with usleep_range() to
avoid busy waiting.

This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
And I also manually check it.
