The driver can be premature in detecting stalled firmware
when the heartbeat is not updated because the firmware can
occasionally take a long time (more than 2 seconds) to service
a request, and doesn't update the heartbeat during that time.
The firmware heartbeat is not necessarily a steady 1 second
periodic beat, but better described as something that should
progress at least once in every DECVMD_TIMEOUT period.
The single-threaded design in the FW means that if a devcmd
or adminq request launches a large internal job, it is stuck
waiting for that job to finish before it can get back to
updating the heartbeat. Since all requests are "guaranteed"
to finish within the DEVCMD_TIMEOUT period, the driver needs
to less aggressive in checking the heartbeat progress.
We change our current 2 second window to something bigger than
DEVCMD_TIMEOUT which should take care of most of the issue.
We stop checking for the heartbeat while waiting for a request,
as long as we're still watching for the FW status. Lastly,
we make sure our FW status is up to date before running a
devcmd request.
Once we do this, we need to not check the heartbeat on DEV
commands because it may be stalled while we're on the fw_down
path. Instead, we can rely on the is_fw_running check.

Currently when an administrator configures a VF via ndo_set_vf*,
the driver will send the set command to FW and then update the
cached value. The cached value is then used when reporting
VF info via ndo_get_vf_config.
A problem is that the VF info may have been updated between
the last ndo_set_vf* and ndo_get_vf_info commands via some
other method, i.e. a VF changes its MAC address (assuming it's
allowed to do so) and since this is all managed by the FW,
this new value won't be reflected in the PF's cache of values.
To fix this, update the driver to always get the latest VF
information by making use of the IONIC_CMD_VF_GETATTR dev
command. The FW may not support getting all the attributes for
IONIC_CMD_VF_GETATTR, so the driver will only update the cached
VF config members if their associated IONIC_CMD_VF_GETATTR
was successful. Otherwise the cached VF config members will
remain the same as what was set in ndo_set_vf*.

When dev commands fail, an error message will always be printed,
which may be overly alarming the to system administrators,
especially if the driver shouldn't be printing the error due
to some unsupported capability.
Similar to recent adminq request changes, we can update the
dev command interface with the ability to selectively print
error messages to allow the driver to prevent printing errors
that are expected.

The AdminQ handler has an error handler that automatically prints
an error message when the request has failed. However, there are
situations where the caller can expect that it might fail and has
an alternative strategy, thus may not want the error message sent
to the log, such as hitting -ENOSPC when adding a new vlan id.
We add a new interface to the AdminQ API to allow for override of
the default behavior, and an interface to the use standard error
message formatting.

Split the adminq wait into smaller polling periods in order
to watch for broken firmware and not have to wait for the full
adminq devcmd_timeout.
Generally, adminq commands take fewer than 2 msecs. If the
FW is busy they can take longer, but usually still under 100
msecs. We set the polling period to 100 msecs in order to
start snooping on FW status when a command is taking longer
than usual.
