Subject: [PATCH 4.12 02/84] net/mlx5: Fix driver load error flow when firmware is stuck

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gal Pressman <galp@...lanox.com>


[ Upstream commit 8ce59b16b4b6eacedaec1f7b652b4781cdbfe15f ]

When wait for firmware init fails, previous code would mistakenly
return success and cause inconsistency in the driver state.

Fixes: 6c780a0267b8 ("net/mlx5: Wait for FW readiness before initializing command interface")
