Subject: [PATCH 06/17] hpsa: retry driver initiated commands on busy status

From: Matt Bondurant <Matthew.dav.bondurant@...com>

In shared SAS configurations we might get a busy status
during driver initiated commands (e.g. during rescan for
devices).  We should retry the command in such cases rather
than giving up.
