[PATCH 3.10 28/53] USB: ipaq.c: fix a timeout loop

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2016-01-27 20:00:16
Also in: lkml

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <redacted>

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.

Fixes: 014aa2a3c32e ('USB: ipaq: minor ipaq_open() cleanup.')
