cpu/intel/car/p4-netburst: Remove delay loops

Browse Source 
While commented as 10 ms + 250 us, those delay loops actually
accounted for a total of 840 ms. And they seem unnecessary
as followup code has potentially infinite retries when
polling for status changes.

Tested on aopen/dxplplusu, dual-socket P4 Xeon HT model_f2x.
