Not sure what you mean. udelay is busy looping, while usleep_range
sleeps instead. How to chose between udelay/usleep_range please read

with two functions it would get:

intel_ddi_wait_for_ddi_buf_active(i915, port)
{
	if (GEN <= 9) {
		usleep_range(600, 1000);
		return;
	}

 	if (wait_for_us(!(read(BUF_CTL) & IS_IDLE), 600))
 		drm_err("Port %c: Timeout waiting for DDI BUF to get active\n", port));
}

intel_ddi_wait_for_ddi_buf_idle(i915, port)
{
	if (BXT) {
		udelay(16);
		return;
	}

 	if (wait_for_us(read(BUF_CTL) & IS_IDLE, 600))
 		drm_err("Port %c: Timeout waiting for DDI BUF to get idle\n", port));
}
