Subject: [PATCH v5] vdpa/ifc/base: wait for queue disable before saving q-state

Some ifc hardware require synchronization between disabling a queue and saving queue-state from LM registers. When queue is disabled from vDPA driver, ifc device stops executing new virtio-cmds and then updates LM registers with used/avail index. Before saving the queue-state, vDPA driver should wait until the queue is disabled from backend.

Fixes: 5d75517beffe ("vdpa/ifc/base: access block device registers")

v2:
* Fixing the styling issues
* Addressing comment to avoid reading the register again after
  exhausting the tries

v3:
* Fixing warning condition

v4:
* Fixing print argument format to %u in warning

v5:
* Addressing comments based on input that line length limit is 100
