count_matched_packetsmethod is getting stuck in a while loop as long as ptf port receives any packet (Ex: in certain testing topologies, protocol packets (like ICMP) on ptf port are causingcount_matched_patchesmethod to stuck waiting for packet poll to fail). Fix is to consider only expected packets w.r.t timeout (similar to existingcount_matched_packets_all_portslogic).See sonic-net/sonic-buildimage#21150 for more details on why this fix is needed.
