Subject: [patch] USB: ipaq.c: fix a timeout loop
Date: Wed, 16 Dec 2015 11:06:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151216110637.GA21018@mwanda> (raw)

The code expects the loop to end with "retries" set to zero but, because
it is a post-op, it will end set to -1.  I have fixed this by moving the
decrement inside the loop.

Fixes: 014aa2a3c32e ('USB: ipaq: minor ipaq_open() cleanup.')
