mdelay(1) is still a really long time to block the CPU for, on potentially
every config space access.

Everybody else just returns the link status here, which seems to be
the better alternative. If you need to delay the startup, better have
a msleep(1) loop in the initial probe function where you are allowed to
sleep.
