[TG3]: Increase 5906 firmware poll time.

Newer 5906 bootcode needs about 7ms to finish resetting so the poll
firmware loop was changed to maximum 20ms.

ACK, of course, but this brings up something else: what's the status of moving chip reset outside of a spinlock?

Currently a reset during operation can trigger the CPU lockup detector and other doo-dads, because you can easily spend a second or two with a spinlock held (a loooooong time, to hold a spinlock)
