After submitting a Firmware Download MRPC command, Switchtec firmware will
delay Management EP BAR MemRd TLP responses by more than 10ms. This is a
firmware limitation. Delayed MemRd completions are a problem for systems
with a low Completion Timeout (CTO).
The current driver checks the MRPC status immediately after submitting an
MRPC command, which results in a delayed MemRd completion that may cause a
Completion Timeout.
Remove the immediate status check and rely on the check after receiving an
interrupt or timing out.
This is only a software workaround to the READ issue and a proper fix of
this should be done in firmware.

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.
