"u8 retries" is a better name, I think, to match the patch title.

Since "#define IXGBE_SFF_IDENTIFIER_SFP 0x3" is hex value, and the ID is too simple.

This DEBUGOUT can be removed, it's redundant, every call for hw->phy.ops.read_i2c_eeprom
has added the DEBUOUT.

Some XGS-PON SFPs have been observed ACKing I2C reads and returning
uninitialized garbage while their uC boots. This can lead to the SFP ID
code marking an otherwise working SFP module as unsupported if a bogus
ID value is read while its internal PHY/microcontroller is still
booting.
Retry the ID read several times looking not just for NAK, but also for a
valid ID field.
Since the device isn't NAKing the trasanction the existing longer retry
code in ixgbe_read_i2c_byte_generic_int() doesn't apply here.

* [PATCH v4] net/ixgbe: retry SFP ID read to handle misbehaving SFPs

From: Stephen Douthit <stephend@silicom-usa.com>
Some XGS-PON SFPs have been observed ACKing I2C reads and returning
uninitialized garbage while their uC boots. This can lead to the SFP ID
code marking an otherwise working SFP module as unsupported if a bogus
ID value is read while its internal PHY/microcontroller is still
booting.
Retry the ID read several times looking not just for NAK, but also for a
valid ID field.
Since the device isn't NAKing the trasanction the existing longer retry
code in ixgbe_read_i2c_byte_generic_int() doesn't apply here.

Notes:
v4:
* Fixed git summary
v3:
* Removed extra braces around single statement if
v2:
* Removed superfluous DEBUGOUT
* Renamed id_reads to retries
* Don't assume status == 0 means IXGBE_SUCCESS
