[PATCH v2] drivers:soc:fsl:qbman:qman.c: Sleep instead of stuck hacking jiffies.

[Karim Eshapa]

Avoid stuck and hacking jiffies for a long time and using msleep()
for certatin numeber of cylces without the factor of safety
but using the the long delay considering the factor of safety
with the while loop such that after msleep for a short period
of time we check the  msg if it's OK, breaking the big loop delay.
