It is OK to sleep in qed_dmae_operation_wait, because it is called only
in process context, while holding p_hwfn->dmae_info.mutex from one of
the qed_dmae_{host,grc}2{host,grc} functions.
The udelay(DMAE_MIN_WAIT_TIME=2) in the function is too short to replace
with usleep_range, but at least it's a suitable point for checking if we
should give up the CPU with cond_resched().
This lowers the latency caused by 'ethtool -d' from 10 ms to less than
2 ms on my test system with voluntary preemption.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
