sfc: Workaround flush failures on Falcon B0
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Under certain conditions a PHY may backpressure Falcon B0
in such a way that flushes timeout. In normal circumstances
the phy poller would fix the PHY, and the flush could complete.

But efx_nic_flush_queues() is always called after efx_stop_all(),
so the poller has been stopped. Even if this weren't the case,
how long would we have to wait for the poller to fix this? And
several callers of efx_nic_flush_queues() are about to reset
the device anyway - so we don't need to do anything.

Work around this bug by scheduling a reset. Ensure that the
MAC is never rewired back into the datapath before the reset
runs (we already ignore all rx events anyway).
