net/ncsi: wait for the last response to Deselect Package before configuring channel

Browse source

commit 6bb194d036 upstream.

The NCSI state machine as it's currently implemented assumes that
transition to the next logical state is performed either explicitly by
calling `schedule_work(&ndp->work)` to re-queue itself or implicitly
after processing the predefined (ndp->pending_req_num) number of
replies. Thus to avoid the configuration FSM from advancing prematurely
and getting out of sync with the process it's essential to not skip
waiting for a reply.

This patch makes the code wait for reception of the Deselect Package
response for the last package probed before proceeding to channel
configuration.

Thanks go to Potin Lai and Cosmo Chou for the initial investigation and
testing.
