    net/i40e: fix blocking link wait on device start
    
    Currently, device start performs a synchronous link status update,
    blocking for up to one second if the link is not yet up. This causes
    unnecessary startup delay in scenarios where the link partner is slow to
    come up or unavailable.
    
    The wait was introduced alongside the maximum frame size MAC config
    command. Some devices require the link to be up before issuing that
    command, so the solution was to block at device start until link was
    established.
    
    To address the issue, remove the unconditional blocking wait. Take note
    if the link was down at the time of the MAC config command during device
    start and if it was, re-issue the command upon notification of the first
    link-up event.
    
    In the case where all interrupt vectors are consumed by Rx queues, no
    interrupt or alarm handler is available to process link-up events. The
    blocking wait is retained for this narrow case to preserve correctness.
