Subject: [PATCH net-next 02/13] ice: retry acquiring hardware semaphore during cross-timestamp request

From: Karol Kolacinski <karol.kolacinski@...el.com>

The hardware for performing a cross-timestamp on E822 uses a hardware
semaphore which we must acquire before initiating the cross-timestamp
operation.

The current implementation only attempts to acquire the semaphore once, and
assumes that it will succeed. If the semaphore is busy for any reason, the
cross-timestamp operation fails with -EFAULT.

Instead of immediately failing, try the acquire the lock a few times with a
small sleep between attempts. This ensures that most requests will go
through without issue.

Additionally, return -EBUSY instead of -EFAULT if the operation can't
continue due to the semaphore being busy.
