3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 501fd9895c1d7d8161ed56698ae2fccb10ef14f5 upstream.
Some races with the hardware can happen when we take
ownership of the device. Don't give up after the first try.
