The existing SW-FW interaction flow on the driver is wrong. Follow this
wrong flow, driver would never return error if there is a unknown command.
Since firmware writes back 'firmware ready' and 'unknown command' in the
mailbox message if there is an unknown command sent by driver. So reading
'firmware ready' does not timeout. Then driver would mistakenly believe
that the interaction has completed successfully.
It tends to happen with the use of custom firmware. Move the check for
'unknown command' out of the poll timeout for 'firmware ready'. And adjust
the debug log so that mailbox messages are always printed when commands
timeout.

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.
