timers: Clarify usleep_range() function comment

Update the usleep_range() function comment to make it clear that it can
only be used in non-atomic context.

Previously we claimed usleep_range() was a drop-in replacement for udelay()
where wakeup is flexible.  But that's only true in non-atomic contexts,
where it's possible to sleep instead of delay.
