I don't see where you're getting 36 from; the loop runs through six times.

Looping w/o the sleeps doesn't make a ton of sense IMHO. The numbers
were found experimentally on KBL, which seemed to more easily
exercise the race that this patch is meant to address. Ideally the
panels would not increment the counter until they were sure that the
CRC data in the DPCD actually reflected reality. Unfortunately, this
isn't what we're seeing. I will create a couple of #defines for the
sleep values, at least, with some comments about them.

I looked at this as refactoring the existing implementation, so I
went ahead and added some debugging info; the error checking is
part of the refactoring. Given the history of problems with this
functionality that seemed warranted. I did notice one line of
whitespace change that snuck in (where I missed that I removed a
blank line.) I can take out the debug prints for the success
cases if they seem excessive (and I'll restore the deleted
blank line for the next version of the patch.)
