Commit 49f86ec21c ("rtlwifi: Change long delays to sleeps") was correct
for most cases; however, driver rtl8192ce calls the affected routines while
in atomic context. The kernel bug output is as follows:
BUG: scheduling while atomic: wpa_supplicant/627/0x00000002

To fix this bug, three of the changes from delay to sleep are reverted.
Unfortunately, one of the changes involves a delay of 50 msec. The calling
code will be modified so that this long delay can be avoided; however,
this change is being pushed now to fix the problem in kernel 4.6.0.
