Thanks for respinning this one, Bryan. Nice diff stat too.

Note however that this patch depends on Arnd's

	[PATCH 2/2] staging: greybus/loopback: use ktime_get() for time intervals

which hasn't been applied yet.

I double checked against v3 and it seems nothing has changed except for
you rebasing it against the latest staging-next (+ Arnd's patch).

A changelog entry mentioning that here would be nice.

So this all still looks good to me except for the two comments I had on
v3 (repeated below).

This lock does not seem to be needed here any more.

And this looks like an unrelated bug fix that should go in it's own
patch, right?

The iteration count should be incremented on errors regardless of this
change.

Also you probably want to hold the gb->mutex while doing so (also in the
sync case).
