[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 20.11 3/4] net/hns3: fix timing in mailbox

[Min Hu (Connor)]

From: Chengchang Tang <tangchengchang at huawei.com>

[ upstream commit d566bfcff0c7bfe167f6c520d4fd5b0104130af6 ]

Currently, when processing MBX messages, the system timestamp is obtained
to determine whether timeout occurs. However, the gettimeofday function
is not monotonically increasing. Therefore, this may lead to incorrect
judgment or difficulty exiting the loop. And actually, in this scenario,
it is not necessary to obtain the timestamp.

This patch deletes the call to the gettimeofday function during MBX
message processing.
