eth: fbnic: Update RX mbox timeout value
This commit unifies timeout values for mailbox RX read requests and
introduces a wrapper function fbnic_mbx_wait_for_cmpl() to simplify the
completion wait calls.

The wrapper returns the result of wait_for_completion_timeout() which is
non-zero (remaining jiffies) on success and zero on timeout.

Is the condition inverted here? The original code enters the first branch
when wait_for_completion_timeout() returns non-zero (success). The new
code enters the first branch when fbnic_mbx_wait_for_cmpl() returns zero
(timeout) due to the added negation. This would cause successful
completions to return -ETIMEDOUT.

Similar issue in this loop - the original code calls reinit_completion()
on success (non-zero return) and goes to error handling on timeout (zero
return). With the added negation, success now triggers the error path
setting err = -ETIMEDOUT, while timeout triggers reinit_completion().
