wfx_bh_request_tx() send HIF request asynchronously through bh_work().
Then the caller will run wfx_bh_poll_irq() to poll the answer.
However it useless to burn CPU cycles for the polling while the request
has yet been sent. Worse, wfx_bh_poll_irq() may get the CPU and prevent
wfx_bh_request_tx() to run. This problem has been observed on mono core
architecture.
This first exchange is correct:
