If some code path executes fm10k_service_event_schedule(), it is
guaranteed that we only queue the service task once, since we use
__FM10K_SERVICE_SCHED flag. Unfortunately this has a side effect that if
a service request occurs while we are currently running the watchdog, it
is possible that we will fail to notice the request and ignore it until
the next time the request occurs.
This can cause problems with pf/vf mailbox communication and other
service event tasks. To avoid this, introduce a FM10K_SERVICE_REQUEST
bit. When we successfully schedule (and set the _SCHED bit) the service
task, we will clear this bit. However, if we are unable to currently
schedule the service event, we just set the new SERVICE_REQUEST bit.
Finally, after the service event completes, we will re-schedule if the
request bit has been set.
This should ensure that we do not miss any service event schedules,
since we will re-schedule it once the currently running task finishes.
This means that for each request, we will always schedule the service
task to run at least once in full after the request came in.
This will avoid timing issues that can occur with the service event
scheduling. We do pay a cost in re-running many tasks, but all the
service event tasks use either flags to avoid duplicate work, or are
tolerant of being run multiple times.
