[PATCH v3 03/20] powerpc/pseries/lpar: add missing RTAS retry status handling

From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl at linux.ibm.com>

The ibm,get-system-parameter RTAS function may return -2 or 990x,
which indicate that the caller should try again.

pseries_lpar_read_hblkrm_characteristics() ignores this, making it
possible to incorrectly detect TLB block invalidation characteristics
at boot.

Move the RTAS call into a coventional rtas_busy_delay()-based loop.
