We need to wait 5 s for EMP reset after firmware flash. Code was extracted
from OOT driver (ice v1.8.3 downloaded from sourceforge). Without this
wait, fw_activate let card in inconsistent state and recoverable only
by second flash/activate. Flash was tested on these fw's:
From -> To
3.00 -> 3.10/3.20
3.10 -> 3.00/3.20
3.20 -> 3.00/3.10

Reboot doesn’t help, only second flash/activate with OOT or patched
driver put card back in consistent state.

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 Restructured Text 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.
