i40e: Fix for VF MAC address 0
[ Upstream commit 08501970472077ed5de346ad89943a37d1692e9b ]
After spawning max VFs on a PF, some VFs were not getting resources and
their MAC addresses were 0. This was caused by PF sleeping before flushing
HW registers which caused VIRTCHNL_VFR_VFACTIVE to not be set in time for
VF.
Fix by adding a sleep after hw flush.
Fixes: e4b433f4a741 ("i40e: reset all VFs in parallel when rebuilding PF")
