At some recent point arch/mips/include/asm/delay.h has started being
included into csrc-octeon.c where the __?delay() functions are defined.
This causes a compile failure due to conflicting declarations and
definitions of the functions.
It turns out that the generic definitions in arch/mips/lib/delay.c also
conflict.
Proposed fix: Declare the functions to take unsigned long parameters
just like asm-generic (and x86) does. Update __delay to agree
(__ndelay and __udelay need no change).
Bonus: Get rid of 'inline' from __delay() definition, as it is globally
visible, and the compiler should be making this decision itself (it does
in fact inline the function without being told to).

<asm/delay.h> will break if HZ isn't defined. In 2.6.26 and later we're
usually lucky ...

Outlining fixes the issue were on certain CPUs such as the R10000 family
the delay loop would need an extra cycle if it overlaps a cacheline
boundary.
The rewrite also fixes build errors with GCC 4.4 which was changed in
way incompatible with the kernel's inline assembly.
Relying on pure C for computation of the delay value removes the need for
explicit. The price we pay is a slight slowdown of the computation - to
be fixed on another day.
