This series contains fixes for i40e only.

These two patches fix an issue where our nvmupdate tool does not work on RHEL 7.4
and newer kernels, in fact, the use of the nvmupdate tool on newer kernels can
cause the cards to be non-functional unless these patches are applied.

Anjali reworks the locking around accessing the NVM so that NVM acquire timeouts
do not occur which was causing the failed firmware updates.

Jake correctly updates the wb_desc when reading the NVM through the AdminQ.

The following are changes since commit 6d9c153a0b84392406bc77600aa7d3ea365de041:
  net: dsa: loop: Do not unregister invalid fixed PHY
and are available in the git repository at:
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-queue 40GbE

  i40e: point wb_desc at the nvm_wb_desc during i40e_read_nvm_aq
