commit 5283dd677e52af9db6fe6ad11b2f12220d519d0c upstream. In some very rare cases the init flow may fail. In many cases, this is recoverable, so we can retry. Implement a loop to retry two more times after the first attempt failed. This can happen in two different situations, namely during probe and during mac80211 start. For the first case, a simple loop is enough. For the second case, we need to add a flag to prevent mac80211 from trying to restart it as well, leaving full control with the driver.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
