[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net v2 1/2] ixgbe: do not busy wait in ixgbe_devlink_reload_empr_finish()

[Linkui Xiao <xiaolinkui@126.com>]

From: Linkui Xiao <xiaolinkui@kylinos.cn>

ixgbe_devlink_reload_empr_finish() is the .reload_up devlink operation,
so it always runs in process context with the devlink instance lock held.
Its polling loop delays with mdelay(500), i.e. it spins the CPU for half
a second per iteration and, because the loop bound is 20 iterations, for
up to ten seconds. That keeps a CPU fully occupied while the firmware
performs the EMP reset, and on CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE it also makes the
loop non-preemptible for that whole window. The loop does not need to be
atomic and holds no spinlock.

Use msleep() instead.

v1:https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260914092626.263886-1-xiaolinkui@126.com/

v2:
  - Reworded the commit message: mdelay() does not mask interrupts or
    disable preemption, and the ~10 s window is below the soft lockup /
    RCU stall thresholds.  State the actual rationale instead.
  - Split the macro rename into a separate patch.
  - The mdelay() -> msleep() change itself is unchanged, so the
    Reviewed-by tag is kept.
