H A Dmbx.cdiff 9ce0e8d72678b5b60c99ce4c7af15ec127c761cb Sat Dec 12 01:45:38 CET 2015 Mitch Williams <mitch.a.williams@intel.com> igb/igbvf: don't give up

The driver shouldn't just 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.
