[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 11/20] net/i40e/base: correct global reset timeout calculation

The wait time for Global Reset Ready steady state is calculated based on
the GLGEN_RSTCTL.GRSTDEL value. However, current impelementation multiplied
that value by 20 as a workaround for an issue in SOC platforms.
This resulted in the maximum GLGEN_RSTCTL.GRSTDEL timeout of 6.5 seconds
becoming 130 seconds, which is so long that the VMkernel watchdog thinks
the kernel is frozen and triggers a PSOD.
