scsi: mpi3mr: Invoke soft reset upon TSU or event ack time out

Browse source

When a timestamp update or an event acknowledgment command times out, the
driver invokes the soft reset handler to recover the controller while
holding a mutex lock. The soft reset handler also tries to acquire the same
mutex to send initialization commands to the controller which leads to a
deadlock scenario.

To resolve the issue the driver will check thestatus and if this indicates
the controller is operational, the driver will issue a diagnostic fault
reset and exit out of the command processing function. If the controller is
already faulted or asynchronously reset, then the driver will just exit the
command processing function.
