4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Eli Cohen <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit 6c780a0267b8a1075f40b39851132eeaefefcff5 ] Before attempting to initialize the command interface we must wait till the fw_initializing bit is clear. If we fail to meet this condition the hardware will drop our configuration, specifically the descriptors page address. This scenario can happen when the firmware is still executing an FLR flow and did not finish yet so the driver needs to wait for that to finish.
