The read_poll_timeout() exit "cond" parameter wait for a complete transmit state.
The "!tx_complete" cond means that on the first tcpm_transmit_helper() call, if the tx_complete returns to false, the poll loop would exit. But since at probe the tx_status is left at 0, the tx is considered as successful. And then later the proper status is returned and ignored. But if on the first tcpm_transmit_helper() call the TX status is returned the read_poll_timeout() would return in timeout and the negociation would fail.
