usleep_range() is called in non-atomic context so there is little point
in setting min==max as the jitter of hrtimer is determined by interruptions
anyway. usleep_range can only perform the intended coalescence if some
room for placing the hrtimer is provided. Given the range of milliseconds
the delay will be 2+ anyway - so make it 2-2.5 ms which gives hrtimers
space to optimize without negatively impacting performance.

Problem located with an experimental coccinelle script
./drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c:411:4-16: WARNING: inefficient usleep_range with range 0 (min==max)
./drivers/staging/wilc1000/wilc_wlan.c:426:4-16: WARNING: inefficient usleep_range with range 0 (min==max)

V2: Based on feedback from Adham Abozaeid <Adham.Abozaeid@microchip.com> that
    since this is in the transmit path 5ms could impact throughput but adding
    500 microseconds should be tolerable.

Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig + Staging=y,
WILC1000_SDIO=m, WILC1000_SPI=m, WILC1000=m

Patch is against 5.1-rc4 (localversion-next is -next-20190410)
