[PATCH v1 1/6] mpi3mr: Invokes soft reset upon TSU or event ack time out

[Ranjan Kumar <ranjan.kumar@broadcom.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1877 bytes --]

When a timestamp update or an event acknowledgment command times out,
the driver invokes soft reset handler to recover the controller while
holding a mutex lock.The soft reset handler also tries to acquire the
same mutex to send initialization commands to the controller which
leads to a deadlock scenario .

To resolve the issue the driver will check the controller status and
if it is operational,the driver will issue a diagnostic fault reset
and exit out of the command processing function.If the controller
is already faulted or asynchronously reset, then the driver will
just exit the command processing function.
