Dave Jiang 7930d85535 dmaengine: idxd: add knob for enqcmds retries
Add a sysfs knob to allow tuning of retries for the kernel ENQCMDS
descriptor submission. While on host, it is not as likely that ENQCMDS
return busy during normal operations due to the driver controlling the
number of descriptors allocated for submission. However, when the driver is
operating as a guest driver, the chance of retry goes up significantly due
to sharing a wq with multiple VMs. A default value is provided with the
system admin being able to tune the value on a per WQ basis.

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.
