nfit/ars: Allow root to busy-poll the ARS state machine

mainline inclusion
from mainline-5.1-rc1
commit c6c5df293bf1
category: bugfix
bugzilla: 12593
CVE: NA

-------------------------------------------------

The ARS implementation implements exponential back-off on the poll
interval to prevent high-frequency access to the DIMM / platform
interface. Depending on when the ARS completes the poll interval may
exceed the completion event by minutes. Allow root to reset the timeout
each time it probes the status. A one-second timeout is still enforced,
but root can otherwise can control the poll interval.
