[PATCH] s390: fix sclp memory corruption in tty pages list
When the sclp interface takes very long to serve a request, the sclp core driver will report a failed request to the sclp tty driver even though the request is still being processed by the sclp interface. Eventually the sclp interface completes the request and updates some fields in the request buffer which leads to a corrupted tty pages list. The next time function sclp_tty_write_room is called, the corrupted list will be traversed, resulting in an oops. To avoid this remove the busy retry limit and increase retry intervals.
