Fix pcspkr driver to use explicit timing delay for access to PIT,
rather than inb_p/outb_p calls, which use insufficiently explicit
delays (defaulting to port 80 writes) that can cause freeze problems
on some machines, such as Quanta moterboard machines using ENE EC's.
The explicit timing delay is only needed for accesses to the 8253 PIT.
The standard requirement for the 8253 to respond to successive writes
is 1 microsecond. The 8253 has never been on the expansion bus, so
a proper delay has nothing to do with expansion bus timing, but instead
its internal logic's capability to react to input. Since udelay is correctly
calibrated by the time the pcspkr driver is initialized, we use 1 microsecond
as the timing.
Also shorten lines to less than 80 characters.
