bnxt_en: Defrag the NVRAM region when resizing UPDATE region fails
When updating to a new firmware pkg, the driver checks if the UPDATE
region is big enough for the pkg and if it's not big enough, it
issues an NVM_WRITE cmd to update with the requested size.
This NVM_WRITE cmd can fail indicating fragmented region. Currently
the driver fails the fw update when this happens. We can improve the
situation by defragmenting the region and try the NVM_WRITE cmd
again. This will make firmware update more reliable.
