[ Upstream commit b340dc680ed48dcc05b56e1ebe1b9535813c3ee0 ] When the driver goes through PCIe AER reset in error state, all firmware messages will timeout because the PCIe bus is no longer accessible. This can lead to AER reset taking many minutes to complete as each firmware command takes time to timeout. Define a new macro BNXT_NO_FW_ACCESS() to skip these firmware messages when either firmware is in fatal error state or when pci_channel_offline() is true. It now takes a more reasonable 20 to 30 seconds to complete AER recovery. Fixes: b4fff2079d10 ("bnxt_en: Do not send firmware messages if firmware is in error 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.
