bnxt_en: Improve the delay logic for firmware response. The current code has 2 problems: 1. The maximum wait time is not long enough. It is about 60% of the duration specified by the firmware. It is calling usleep_range(600, 800) for every 1 msec we are supposed to wait. 2. The granularity of the delay is too coarse. Many simple firmware commands finish in 25 usec or less. We fix these 2 issues by multiplying the original 1 msec loop counter by 40 and calling usleep_range(25, 40) for each iteration. There is also a second delay loop to wait for the last DMA word to complete. This delay loop should be a very short 5 usec wait. This change results in much faster bring-up/down time: Before the patch: time ip link set p4p1 up real 0m0.120s user 0m0.001s sys 0m0.009s After the patch: time ip link set p4p1 up real 0m0.030s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.010s Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <michael.chan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
