Jakub Kicinski eb79c31aac nfp: avoid soft lockups under control message storm
[ Upstream commit ff58e2df62 ]

When FW floods the driver with control messages try to exit the cmsg
processing loop every now and then to avoid soft lockups.  Cmsg
processing is generally very lightweight so 512 seems like a reasonable
budget, which should not be exceeded under normal conditions.
