A mirror of the official Linux kernel repository just in case

As the comments in this patch say, if we tune and find all phases are
valid it's _almost_ as bad as no phases being found valid. Probably
all phases are not really reliable but we didn't detect where the
unreliable place is. That means we'll essentially be guessing and
hoping we get a good phase.
This is not just a problem in theory. It was causing real problems on
a real board. On that board, most often phase 10 is found as the only
invalid phase, though sometimes 10 and 11 are invalid and sometimes
just 11. Some percentage of the time, however, all phases are found
to be valid. When this happens, the current logic will decide to use
phase 11. Since phase 11 is sometimes found to be invalid, this is a
bad choice. Sure enough, when phase 11 is picked we often get mmc
errors later in boot.
I have seen cases where all phases were found to be valid 3 times in a
row, so increase the retry count to 10 just to be extra sure.

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.
