Steven Rostedt (VMware) ff84c50cfb ring-buffer: Do not die if rb_iter_peek() fails more than thrice
As the iterator will be reading a live buffer, and if the event being read
is on a page that a writer crosses, it will fail and try again, the
condition in rb_iter_peek() that only allows a retry to happen three times
is no longer valid. Allow rb_iter_peek() to retry more than three times
without killing the ring buffer, but only if rb_iter_head_event() had failed
at least once.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
