Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: intel_scu_ipc: Keep polling IPC status if it reads IPC_STATUS_ERR

The current implementation returns -EIO if and when IPC_STATUS_ERR is returned and returns -ETIMEDOUT even if the status is busy.
This patch polls the IPC status even if IPC_STATUS_ERR is returned until timeout expires and returns -EBUSY if the status shows busy.
Observed in multiple scenarios, trying to fetch the status of IPC after it shows ERR sometimes eradicates the ERR status.
