ice: sleep, don't busy-wait, for ICE_CTL_Q_SQ_CMD_TIMEOUT

The driver polls for ice_sq_done() with a 100 µs period for up to 1 s
and it uses udelay to do that.

Let's use usleep_range instead. We know sleeping is allowed here,
because we're holding a mutex (cq->sq_lock). To preserve the total
max waiting time, measure the timeout in jiffies.

ICE_CTL_Q_SQ_CMD_TIMEOUT is used also in ice_release_res(), but there
the polling period is 1 ms (i.e. 10 times longer). Since the timeout was
expressed in terms of the number of loops, the total timeout in this
function is 10 s. I do not know if this is intentional. This patch keeps
it.

The patch lowers the CPU usage of the ice-gnss-<dev_name> kernel thread
on my system from ~8 % to less than 1 %.

I received a report of high CPU usage with ptp4l where the busy-waiting
in ice_sq_send_cmd dominated the profile. This patch has been tested in
that usecase too and it made a huge improvement there.
