[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH 0/2] i40e: fix firmware update

The first patch fixes the firmware update which is currently broken and
results in a bad flash (corrupt firmware). Recovery is possible with a
fixed driver.
The second patch reverts a commit that causes the firmware checksum
verification to fail right after a successful flash. This is related to
a recent workqueue change. Haven't gotten to the bottom of this yet, but
for the sake of a smooth firmware update experience let's revert the
commit for now.

  i40e: use non-locking i40e_read_nvm_word() function during nvmupdate
  Revert "i40e: remove WQ_UNBOUND and the task limit of our workqueue"
