[PATCH net 2/3] net: ipa: use state to determine channel command success

[Alex Elder]

The result of issuing a channel control command should be that the
channel changes state.  If enabled, a completion interrupt signals
that the channel state has changed.  This interrupt is enabled by
gsi_channel_command() and disabled again after the command has
completed (or we time out).

There is a window of time--after the completion interrupt is disabled
but before the channel state is read--during which the command could
complete successfully without interrupting.  This would cause the
channel to transition to the desired new state.

So whether a channel command ends via completion interrupt or
timeout, we can consider the command successful if the channel
has entered the desired state (and a failure if it has not,
regardless of the cause).

Fixes: d6c9e3f506ae8 ("net: ipa: only enable generic command completion IRQ when needed");
