[PATCH] USB: MAX3421: Handle USB NAK correctly

From: Mark Tomlinson
Date: Thu Jan 26 2023 - 21:48:18 EST


A USB peripheral can respond with a NAK if it is not yet ready to
send/receive data. In this case, the transaction should be retried. The
MAX3421 driver did do this, and switched to a different type of retry
after a number of 'fast' retries. On at least some USB flash devices,
this second type of retry never succeeds. This patch changes the
behaviour so that 'fast' retries continue.
