nfp: ignore signals when communicating with management FW
[ Upstream commit 5496295a ] We currently allow signals to interrupt the wait for management FW commands. Exiting the wait should not cause trouble, the FW will just finish executing the command in the background and new commands will wait for the old one to finish. However, this may not be what users expect (Ctrl-C not actually stopping the command). Moreover some systems routinely request link information with signals pending (Ubuntu 14.04 runs a landscape-sysinfo python tool from MOTD) worrying users with errors like these: nfp 0000:04:00.0: nfp_nsp: Error -512 waiting for code 0x0007 to start nfp 0000:04:00.0: nfp: reading port table failed -512 Make the wait for management FW responses non-interruptible.
