grub2/0134-efinet-retransmit-if-our-device-is-busy.patch
Peter Jones 81987f4958 Update grub2 for f28
- Try to fix things for new compiler madness.
  I really don't know why gcc decided __attribute__((packed)) on a "typedef
  struct" should imply __attribute__((align (1))) and that it should have a
  warning that it does so.  The obvious behavior would be to keep the alignment
  of the first element unless it's used in another object or type that /also/
  hask the packed attribute.  Why should it change the default alignment at
  all?
- Merge in the BLS patches Javier and I wrote.
- Attempt to fix pmtimer initialization failures to not be super duper slow.

Subject: [PATCH 134/206] efinet: retransmit if our device is busy
When I fixed the txbuf handling I ripped out the retransmission code since it
was flooding our network when we had the buggy behavior. Turns out this was too
heavy handed as we can still have transient tx timeouts. So instead make sure
we retry our transmission once per timeout. This way we can deal with transient
transmission problems without flooding the box. This fixes an issue we were
seeing in production. Thanks,
