in case of EMERGENCY, is a loop of NOPs an option?

If your trying to make a delay with nops, then you have to make sure you have the get_data and put_data functions in there.. actually you dont really even need nops..

void delay(int time)
{
  for (int i=0; i<time; i++)
  {
    GetData(); // dont remember the parameters
    PutData(); // dont remember the parameters
  }
}

That is completely untested but it should delay...
