From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 5d08633e5f6564b60f1cbe09af3af40a74d66431 ] The ibm,get-system-parameter RTAS function may return -2 or 990x, which indicate that the caller should try again. lparcfg's parse_system_parameter_string() ignores this, making it possible to intermittently report incorrect SPLPAR characteristics. Move the RTAS call into a coventional rtas_busy_delay()-based loop.
