The current code has 2 problems:

1. The maximum wait time is not long enough.  It is about 60% of the
duration specified by the firmware.  It is calling usleep_range(600, 800)
for every 1 msec we are supposed to wait.

2. The granularity of the delay is too coarse.  Many simple firmware
commands finish in 25 usec or less.

We fix these 2 issues by multiplying the original 1 msec loop counter by
40 and calling usleep_range(25, 40) for each iteration.

There is also a second delay loop to wait for the last DMA word to
complete.  This delay loop should be a very short 5 usec wait.

This change results in much faster bring-up/down time:

Before the patch:

time ip link set p4p1 up

real    0m0.120s
user    0m0.001s
sys     0m0.009s

After the patch:

time ip link set p4p1 up

real    0m0.030s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.010s
