Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/4] ice: sleep, don't busy-wait, for sq_cmd_timeout

From: Michal Schmidt <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2023 19:26:57 +0200

The driver polls for ice_sq_done() with a 100 µs period for up to 1 s
and it uses udelay to do that.

Let's use usleep_range instead. We know sleeping is allowed here,
because we're holding a mutex (cq->sq_lock). To preserve the total
max waiting time, measure cq->sq_cmd_timeout in jiffies.

The sq_cmd_timeout is referenced also in ice_release_res(), but there
the polling period is 1 ms (i.e. 10 times longer). Since the timeout
was expressed in terms of the number of loops, the total timeout in this
function is 10 s. I do not know if this is intentional. This patch keeps
it.

The patch lowers the CPU usage of the ice-gnss-<dev_name> kernel thread
on my system from ~8 % to less than 1 %.
I saw a report of high CPU usage with ptp4l where the busy-waiting in
ice_sq_send_cmd dominated the profile. The patch should help with that.
