[PATCH 2/2] net/thunderx: wait to complete during link update

From: Andriy Berestovskyy <hidden>
Date: 2017-03-31 13:58:11
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Some DPDK applications/examples check link status on their
start. NICVF does not wait for the link, so those apps fail.

Wait up to 9 seconds for the link as other PMDs do in order
to fix those apps/examples.
