[PATCH v4 5/9] vfio: selftests: igb: Extend memcpy completion timeout for line-rate hardware

[Josh Hilke <jrhilke@google.com>]

From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@nvidia.com>

The submitted driver waits at most 1 ms (100 * 10 us) for the last RX
descriptor to be written back.  QEMU's emulated loopback is synchronous:
by the time igb_memcpy_wait() runs, the receive descriptors are already
written back.  Real 82576 hardware processes the descriptor ring at
line rate.

max_memcpy_size is (RING_SIZE - 1) * IGB_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE, approximately
4 MB, split into 4095 1 KB frames.  At 1 Gb/s line rate (~125 MB/s),
4 MB takes ~32 ms on the wire, plus per-frame preamble, SFD,
inter-frame gap and FCS overhead (~3%) and descriptor fetch/writeback
latency.  The 1 ms cap times out long before any valid transfer can
complete.

Wait up to ~200 ms (200 iterations * 1 ms) for descriptor writeback
before returning -ETIMEDOUT.  ~6x the line-rate floor leaves comfortable
headroom for host scheduling jitter while keeping the intentional
invalid-DMA tests (mix_and_match) so they recover quickly on real faults.
