[patch 4/24] s390: cio long busy in read configuration data.

[Martin Schwidefsky]

From: Peter Oberparleiter <peter.oberparleiter@xxxxxxxxxx>

[S390] cio long busy in read configuration data.

Trying to set a DASD root device online can fail under some circumstances
with the message "Read configuration data returned error -5". The cause
is that read configuration data incorrectly aborts with -EIO when it
encounters a temporary busy condition at a storage server.
Perform retry when encountering temporary busy conditions.
