[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/i40e: fix sync phy type by adding retry

[David Hunt <david.hunt@intel.com>]

Some phy's take longer than others to come up. Add a retry to give
more phy's a chance to come up before returning an error.

Fixes: 2209c3e2c275 ("net/i40e: avoid PCI probing failure when using bogus SFP")
