If pm_genpd_{add,remove}_device() keeps on failing with -EAGAIN, we end
up with an infinite loop in genpd_dev_pm_{at,de}tach().

This may happen due to a genpd.prepared_count imbalance.  This is a bug
elsewhere, but it will result in a system lock up, possibly during
reboot of an otherwise functioning system.

To avoid this, put a limit on the maximum number of loop iterations,
using an exponential back-off mechanism.  If the limit is reached, the
operation will just fail.  An error message is already printed.

v3:
  - Increase maximum timeout to ca. 250 ms (delay time only, i.e. not
    including actual processing time),
  - use mdelay() instead of udelay(), as the former is limited to 2 ms,
  - Use exponential back-off, busy waiting for 1 to 128 ms in each
    iteration, up to 255 ms in total,

v2:
  - Add missing declaration of "i" in genpd_dev_pm_attach().
