Subject: USB: ipaq.c: fix a timeout loop
From: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]>
commit abdc9a3b4bac97add99e1d77dc6d28623afe682b upstream.
The code expects the loop to end with "retries" set to zero but, because it is a post-op, it will end set to -1. I have fixed this by moving the decrement inside the loop.
