* Make driver wait longer for board to enter simple mode to
handle an unlikely corner case. (If you hot replace a 144 GB
failed disk in a RAID 5 set at just the right time prior to
driver initialization, the board can take an extra long time
to become ready when switched into "simple mode" when the
driver is starting up. Without the patch, in those cases, the
driver will give up before the board becomes ready, and will not work.
(Though rebooting will generally "fix" it). This patch avoids
the problem.)
* Fix a couple of affected ioctls to return EAGAIN instead of
inappropriate EFAULT.
