The IPA driver remove callback, ipa_remove(), calls ipa_modem_stop() if the setup stage of initialization is complete. If a concurrent call to ipa_modem_start() or ipa_modem_stop() has begin but not completed, ipa_modem_stop() can return an error (-EBUSY).
The next patch adds a driver shutdown callback, which will simply call ipa_remove(). We really want our shutdown callback to clean things up. So add a single retry to the ipa_modem_stop() call in ipa_remove() after a short (millisecond) delay. This offers no guarantee the shutdown will complete successfully, but we'll at least try a little harder before giving up.
