This piece seems buggy to me. There should be some sort of limit on
how long you are willing to delay. Otherwise a surprise remove can
cause this to spin forever when the register reads return all 1's.

It would probably make sense to add a data member to the hardware
structure that tracks if you have IPsec enabled or not. Then you don't
have to track the IPS_EN bits in patch 2 like you currently are and
could instead either not do IPsec SA updates if IPsec is not enabled,
or use the enable value to determine what you write for IPS_EN instead
of having to read registers.
