Subject: [net-next 06/16] i40e: Increase timeout when checking GLGEN_RSTAT_DEVSTATE bit

From: Kevin Scott <kevin.c.scott@...el.com>

When linking with particular PHY types (ex: copper PHY), the amount of
time it takes for the GLGEN_RSTAT_DEVSTATE to be set increases greatly,
which can lead to a timeout and failure to load the driver.
