If an attempt at contacting a receiver or a device fails because the receiver or device never responds, don't restart the communication, only restart it if the receiver or device answers that it's busy, as originally intended. This was the behaviour on communication timeout before commit 586e8fede795 ("HID: logitech-hidpp: Retry commands when device is busy"). This fixes some overly long waits in a critical path on boot, when checking whether the device is connected by getting its HID++ version.
