netxen: avoid frequent firmware reset
Restrict firmware reset to following cases - o chip rev is NX2031 (firmare doesn't support heartbit). o firmware is dead. o previous attempt to init firmware had failed. o we have got newer file firmware. This speeds up module load tremendously (by upto 8 sec), also avoids downtime for NCSI (management) pass-thru traffic. Signed-off-by: Dhananjay Phadke <dhananjay@netxen.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
