Subject: [net-next v2 11/13] i40e: allow reset in recovery mode

From: Piotr Kwapulinski <piotr.kwapulinski@...el.com>

Driver waits after issuing a reset. When a reset takes too long a driver
gives up. Implemented by invoking PF reset in a loop. After defined
number of unsuccessful PF reset trials it returns error.
Without this patch PF reset fails when NIC is in recovery mode.

So make i40e_set_mac_type() public. i40e driver requires i40e_set_mac_type()
to be public. It is required for recovery mode handling. Without this patch
recovery mode could not be detected in i40e_probe().

+ *
+ * This function is useful when a NIC is about to enter recovery mode.
+ * When a NIC's internal data structures are corrupted the NIC's
+ * firmware is going to enter recovery mode.
+ * Right after a POR it takes about 7 minutes for firmware to enter
+ * recovery mode. Until that time a NIC is in some kind of intermediate
+ * state. After that time period the NIC almost surely enters
+ * recovery mode. The only way for a driver to detect intermediate
+ * state is to issue a series of pf-resets and check a return value.
+ * If a PF reset returns success then the firmware could be in recovery
+ * mode so the caller of this code needs to check for recovery mode
+ * if this function returns success. There is a little chance that
+ * firmware will hang in intermediate state forever.
+ * Since waiting 7 minutes is quite a lot of time this function waits
+ * 10 seconds and then gives up by returning an error.
+ *
+ * Return 0 on success, negative on failure.
