bnx2x: Improve reliability in case of nested PCI errors
While in recovery process of PCI error (called EEH on PowerPC arch), another PCI transaction could be corrupted causing a situation of nested PCI errors. Also, this scenario could be reproduced with error injection mechanisms (for debug purposes). We observe that in case of nested PCI errors, bnx2x might attempt to initialize its shmem and cause a kernel crash due to bad addresses read from MCP. Multiple different stack traces were observed depending on the point the second PCI error happens. This patch avoids the crashes by: * failing PCI recovery in case of nested errors (since multiple PCI errors in a row are not expected to lead to a functional adapter anyway), and by, * preventing access to adapter FW when MCP is failed (we mark it as failed when shmem cannot get initialized properly).
