x86: various changes and cleanups to in_p/out_p delay details
various changes to the in_p/out_p delay details:
- add the io_delay=none method
- make each method selectable from the kernel config
- simplify the delay code a bit by getting rid of an indirect function call
- add the /proc/sys/kernel/io_delay_type sysctl
- change 'io_delay=standard|alternate' to io_delay=0x80 and io_delay=0xed
- make the io delay config not depend on CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL
