[PATCH 5.10 099/563] crypto: qat - remove unnecessary collision prevention step in PFVF

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 24 2022 - 15:57:43 EST


From: Marco Chiappero <marco.chiappero@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e17f49bb244a281fe39bfdad0306a38b3a02e7bf ]

The initial version of the PFVF protocol included an initial "carrier
sensing" to get ownership of the channel.

Collisions can happen anyway, the extra wait and test does not prevent
collisions, it instead slows the communication down, so remove it.
