When the admin queue command to read NVM returns EBUSY, the driver
currently treats it as a fatal error and aborts the entire read
operation. This can cause spurious NVM read failures during periods of
high firmware activity.
Add retry logic to ice_read_flat_nvm() that handles EBUSY responses
from the admin queue. When an EBUSY error is encountered, release the
NVM resource lock, wait for ICE_SQ_SEND_DELAY_TIME_MS, re-acquire it,
and retry the failed read. The retry is attempted up to
ICE_SQ_SEND_MAX_EXECUTE times before giving up.
Code was extracted from OOT ice driver 1.15.4 release. Additional
change was made to reset last_cmd in case of retry to make sure that
all commands are retried properly.
Fixes: e94509906d6b ("ice: create function to read a section of the NVM and
Shadow RAM")
