There is a case found in heavy testing where a link flap happens just
before a firmware Recovery event and the driver gets stuck in the
BROKEN state.  This comes from the driver getting interrupted by a FW
generation change when coming back up from the link flap, and the call
to ionic_start_queues() in ionic_link_status_check() fails.  This can be
addressed by having the fw_up code clear the BROKEN bit if seen, rather
than waiting for a user to manually force the interface down and then
back up.
