Some adapters return DEFER indefinitely, which results in being stuck in the
kernel, which triggers the watchdog, which reboots. To avoid this, limit to
100 tries, after which we return an error and pring a message.

BUG=chrome-os-partner:15612
TEST=by hand, use the apple miniDP to dual-link adapter, plug a 30 inch
TEST=monitor, the machine shouldn't reboot spontaneously (the monitor still
TEST=won't work, but that is a separate bug).
