[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: give more chance for tlb flush if failed

Hi Christian,
     I agree with that the patch will hide the real problem, it is just a workaround, I will change the patch as you suggest.
as the sriov has lots of issues on the staging,  maybe we could first submit the two workarounds, later, I will spend some time
to find out the root cause.
     I think the issue reproduce is reliable.

Best Wishes,
Emily Deng
