net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Improve performance of busy bit polling
Avoid a long delay when a busy bit is still set and has to be polled again. Measurements on a system with 2 Opals (6097F) and one Agate (6352) show that even with this much tighter loop, we have about a 50% chance of the bit being cleared on the first poll, all other accesses see the bit being cleared on the second poll. On a standard MDIO bus running MDC at 2.5MHz, a single access with 32 bits of preamble plus 32 bits of data takes 64*(1/2.5MHz) = 25.6us. This means that mv88e6xxx_smi_direct_wait took 26us + CPU overhead in the fast scenario, but 26us + 1500us + 26us + CPU overhead in the slow case - bringing the average close to 1ms. With this change in place, the slow case is closer to 2*26us + CPU overhead, with the average well below 100us - a 10x improvement. This translates to real-world winnings.
