[RFC] PCI: pci-imx6: Add delay to workaround kernel hang

From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam at freescale.com>

When the mx6 PCI conctroller is initialized in the bootloader we see a kernel 
hang inside imx6_add_pcie_port().

Adding a 30ms delay allows the kernel to boot.

I am happy to get feedback on how to properly fix this.

Thanks
