When the sclp interface takes very long to serve a request, the sclp core
driver will report a failed request to the sclp tty driver even though the
request is still being processed by the sclp interface.  Eventually the sclp
interface completes the request and updates some fields in the request buffer
which leads to a corrupted tty pages list.  The next time function
sclp_tty_write_room is called, the corrupted list will be traversed, resulting
in an oops.

To avoid this remove the busy retry limit and increase retry intervals.

 *
 *   Note: Since Boyer-Moore (BM) performs searches for matchings from right 
 *   to left, it's still possible that a matching could be spread over 
 *   multiple blocks, in that case this algorithm won't find any coincidence.
 *   
 *   If you're willing to ensure that such thing won't ever happen, use the
 *   Knuth-Pratt-Morris (KMP) implementation instead. In conclusion, choose 
 *   the proper string search algorithm depending on your setting. 
 *
 *   Say you're using the textsearch infrastructure for filtering, NIDS or 
 *   any similar security focused purpose, then go KMP. Otherwise, if you 
 *   really care about performance, say you're classifying packets to apply
 *   Quality of Service (QoS) policies, and you don't mind about possible
 *   matchings spread over multiple fragments, then go BM.
