qed: make 'ethtool -d' 10 times faster
As a side effect of commit 5401c3e ("qed: allow sleep in qed_mcp_trace_dump()"), 'ethtool -d' became much slower. Almost all the time is spent collecting the "mcp_trace". It is caused by sleeping too long in _qed_mcp_cmd_and_union. When called with sleeping not allowed, the function delays for 10 µs between firmware polls. But if sleeping is allowed, it sleeps for 10 ms instead. The sleeps in _qed_mcp_cmd_and_union are unnecessarily long. Replace msleep with usleep_range, which allows to achieve a similar polling interval like in the no-sleeping mode (10 - 20 µs). The only caller, qed_mcp_cmd_and_union, can stop doing the multiplication/division of the usecs/max_retries. The polling interval and the number of retries do not need to be parameters at all. On my test system, 'ethtool -d' now takes 4 seconds instead of 44.
