Harald Freudenberger f06ce8ddbd s390/zcrypt: return EIO when msg retry limit reached 
[ Upstream commit d39fae45c9 ]

When a msg is retried because the lower ap layer returns -EAGAIN
there is a retry limit (currently 10). When this limit is reached
the last return code from the lower layer is returned, causing
the userspace to get -1 on the ioctl with errno EAGAIN.

This EAGAIN is misleading here. After 10 retry attempts the
userspace should receive a clear failure indication like EINVAL
or EIO or ENODEV. However, the reason why these retries all
fail is unclear. On an invalid message EINVAL would be returned
by the lower layer, and if devices go away or are not available
an ENODEV is seen. So this patch now reworks the retry loops
to return EIO to userspace when the retry limit is reached.

Fixes: 91ffc519c1 ("s390/zcrypt: introduce msg tracking in zcrypt functions")

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.
