mwifiex: firmware download enhancements
Same chip is being used by WLAN as well as bluetooth drivers. Each driver needs to check during initialisation if firmware is already active or it needs to be freshly downloaded. If one driver has started downloading the firmware, other finds the winner flag as false. mwifiex_check_fw_status() checks firmware status and also check if WLAN is the winner for firmware downloading. Once we detect that other interface is downloading the firmware, we call this routine again with max poll count to wait until firmware is ready. This patch splits the routine to avoid checking winner status unnecessarily multiple times and ensures that correct messages are displayed to user. Firmware status poll count is also increased to 150.
