During firmware update the adminq gets locked. Currently during the
update i40e_calc_nvm_checksum() calls i40e_read_nvm_word() which itself
tries to acquire the adminq lock. This fails as the lock is already
taken.
This results in the firmware update to fail, leaving the eeprom in a
corrupt state.

To fix this, introducing __i40e_read_nvm_word() which avoids locking and
replace the calls to i40e_read_nvm_word() in i40e_calc_nvm_checksum()
with the newly introduced function. The change matches the i40e
sourceforge driver as much as possible.

With this in place the firmware update is now working again.
Fixes: ("96a39aed25e6 i40e: Acquire NVM lock before reads on all devices")
