From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>
The CDAT read may fail for a number of reasons but mainly it is possible
to get different parts of a valid state. The checksum in the CDAT table
protects against this.
Now that the checksum is validated issue a retry if the CDAT read fails.
For now 2 retries are implemented.

NOTE: Is 2 enough? Should this just be delayed until the time when the
data is actually needed and not there?
Changes from V5:
New patch -- easy to push off or drop.
