The driver shouldn't give up if it fails to get the hardware mailbox lock. This can happen in a situation where the PF-VF communication channel is heavily loaded and causes complete communications failure between the PF and VF drivers. Add a counter and a delay. The driver will now retry ten times, waiting one millisecond between retries. Signed-off-by: Wenzhuo Lu <wenzhuo.lu@intel.com>
