__bad_udelay is a compile time check that constant udelays do not exceed
a certain threshold. For x86_64 it used to be n > 20000, now it is n /
20000 >= 1. The problem is in
drivers/staging/gma500/psb_intel_display.c:psb_init_wait_for_vblank,
which does udelay(20000) which under the old code would have been fine,
but fails the new __bad_udelay check.
Possibly the udelay can just be converted to an mdelay?
