3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 123af9043e93cb6f235207d260d50f832cdb5439 ] The loop timeout doesn't work because it's a post op and ends with "tmo" set to -1. I changed it from a post-op to a pre-op and I changed the initial the starting value from 5 to 6 so we still iterate 5 times. I left the other as it was because it's a large number.
