[Intel-wired-lan] [next PATCH S47 2/9] i40e: Rewrite Flow Director busy wait loop

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck at intel.com>

We can reorder the busy wait loop at the start of the Flow Director
transmit function to reduce the overall code size while still retaining the
same functionality.  As such I am taking advantage of the opportunity to do
so.

Testing Hints:
        Verify Flow Director still functional for adding/deleting rules.
