Jérôme Pouiller c86176d513 staging: wfx: ensure HIF request has been sent before polling
wfx_bh_request_tx() send HIF request asynchronously through bh_work().
Then the caller will run wfx_bh_poll_irq() to poll the answer.

However it useless to burn CPU cycles for the polling while the request
has yet been sent. Worse, wfx_bh_poll_irq() may get the CPU and prevent
wfx_bh_request_tx() to run. This problem has been observed on mono core
architecture.

This first exchange is correct:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
