[PATCH] arm: spin one more cycle in timer-based delays

[Mason]

When polling a tick counter in a busy loop, one might sample the
counter just *before* it is updated, and then again just *after*
it is updated. In that case, while mathematically v2-v1 equals 1,
only epsilon has really passed.

So, if a caller requests an N-cycle delay, we spin until v2-v1
is strictly greater than N to avoid these random corner cases.
