Subject: [PATCH net-next] liquidio VF: reduce load time of module
Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2017 17:40:27 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170112014027.GA9704@felix.cavium.com> (raw)

From: Prasad Kanneganti <prasad.kanneganti@cavium.com>

Reduce the load time of the VF driver by decreasing the wait time between
iterations of the loop that polls for a mailbox response from the PF. Also
change the wait time units from jiffies to milliseconds.
