nfp: ignore signals when communicating with management FW 

We currently allow signals to interrupt the wait for management FW
commands.  Exiting the wait should not cause trouble, the FW will
just finish executing the command in the background and new commands
will wait for the old one to finish.

However, this may not be what users expect (Ctrl-C not actually stopping
the command).  Moreover some systems routinely request link information
with signals pending (Ubuntu 14.04 runs a landscape-sysinfo python tool
from MOTD) worrying users with errors like these:

nfp 0000:04:00.0: nfp_nsp: Error -512 waiting for code 0x0007 to start
nfp 0000:04:00.0: nfp: reading port table failed -512

Make the wait for management FW responses non-interruptible.
