[PATCH 3/5] staging: r8188eu: fix the number of probereq retries

From: Martin Kaiser
Date: Sat Nov 26 2022 - 10:43:28 EST


issue_probereq_ex sends a probe request and retries if this fails. There's
no point in making the number of retries configurable. Hard-code the value
that's used by issue_probereq_ex's only caller.

Simplify the code to check the loop condition only once.
