I personally like the idea behind this patch. But I have
heard others argue against it. But it is not related to the
^C issue others have mentioned. That should not happen in
the GIT kernel.

I would not initiate recovery until a timeout occurs.
This can be a multi master bus, so a busy condition
may be valid. Then, after multiple timeouts and recovery attempts,
return -ETIMEDOUT
