This is patch 2 of 8 in a series of zfcp bug fixes. Patches are based on 2.6.12-rc6 plus "remove flags_dump feature"-patch from June, 10th. This one extends the time for adapter initialization: In case of protocol status HOST_CONNECTION_INITIALIZING for the exchange config data command do a first retry in 1 second, then double the sleep time for each following retry until recovery exceeds 2 minutes. The old behaviour of allowing 6 retries with .5 seconds delay between retries was insufficient and qdio queues were shut down too erarly.
