qed: Optimize execution time for nvm attributes configuration.
Current implementation for nvm_attr configuration instructs the management FW to load/unload the nvm-cfg image for each user-provided attribute in the input file. This consumes lot of cycles even for few tens of attributes. This patch updates the implementation to perform load/commit of the config for every 50 attributes. After loading the nvm-image, MFW expects that config should be committed in a predefined timer value (5 sec), hence it's not possible to write large number of attributes in a single load/commit window. Hence performing the commits in chunks. Fixes: 0dabbe1b ("qed: Add driver API for flashing the config attributes.")
