[Skiboot] [PATCH v2] bt: use the maximum retry count returned by the BMC

Mon Mar 14 21:37:11 AEDT 2016


OpenPower systems using a AMI firmware on the BMC have a BT device
configured with a capability of '1' maximum retry. The following code
is equivalent to what skiboot currently supports but it will now also
handle setups of other BT devices, like in qemu or OpenBMC.

 Changes since v2:

 - rename send_count to retries. Suggested by Vipin.
