[PATCH v2 2/3] HID: i2c-hid: Retry HID descriptor read to wake up STM devices

From: Kenny Levinsen
Date: Tue Apr 23 2024 - 08:26:19 EST


Some STM microcontrollers need 400µs after rising clock edge in order to
come out of their deep sleep state. This in turn means that the first
command send to them timeout and fail with EREMOTEIO.

Retry once on EREMOTEIO to see if the device came alive, otherwise treat
the error as if no device was present like before.
