The two modified points are relevant. We bump the timeout for SET_FUNC_STATE
to ensure that cmd won't return failure when hw is busy. Otherwise hw
may stomp
host memory if we free memory regardless of the return value of
SET_FUNC_STATE.
I will mention the timeout changes in the commit message. And the bug
exists since
the first commit, not introduced. Thanks for your review.

The code looks good, but would it make sense to split this patch into
two? First one that ignores the return values on close path with these
fixes tags:
Fixes: e2585ea77538 ("net-next/hinic: Add Rx handler")
Fixes: c4d06d2d208a ("net-next/hinic: Add Rx mode and link event handler")
And a separate patch which bumps the timeout for SET_FUNC_STATE? Right
now you don't even mention the timeout changes in the commit message.
