Subject: [net 2/6] net/mlx5: Continue health polling until it is explicitly stopped

From: Mohamad Haj Yahia <mohamad@...lanox.com>

The issue is that when we get an assert we will stop polling the health
and thus we cant enter error state when we have a real health issue.

Fixes: fd76ee4da55a ('net/mlx5_core: Fix internal error detection conditions')
