Is there a simple way to delay for a number of ticks on a
non-system counter? What I need is something equivalent to
cyg_thread_delay() where I can specify the counter handle
that's to be used for the delay.
I could create an alarm handle&object, an alarm handler, and a
semaphore, and then set up the alarm handler to signal the
semaphore, schedule and enable the alarm, then block on the
semaphore/flag. But that seems like a lot of overhead --
especially when the cyg_thread_delay_counter() call needs to be
thread-safe.
