benet: Wait f/w POST until timeout
While PCI card faces EEH errors, reset (usually hot reset) is expected to recover from the EEH errors. After EEH core finishes the reset, the driver callback (be_eeh_reset) is called and wait the firmware to complete POST successfully. The original code would return with error once detecting failure during POST stage. That seems not enough. The patch forces the driver (be_eeh_reset) to wait the firmware completes POST until timeout, instead of returning error upon detection POST failure immediately. Also, it would improve the reliability of the EEH funtionality of the driver.
