In wait for vblank use usleep_range, which will use hrtimers instead of
msleep. Using msleep(1~20) there are more chances of sleeping for 20ms.
Using usleep_range uses hrtimers and hence are precise, worst case will
trigger an interrupt at the higher/max timeout.
As per kernel document "Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt" sleeping
for 10us to 20ms its recomended to use usleep_range.
