power: supply: axp288_fuel_gauge: Drop retry logic from fuel_gauge_reg_readb()
The I2C-bus to the XPower AXP288 is shared between the Linux kernel and the SoCs P-Unit. The P-Unit has a semaphore which the kernel must "lock" before it may use the bus. This semaphore is automatically taken by the I2C-bus-driver. The retry on -EBUSY logic in fuel_gauge_reg_readb() likely was added to deal with the I2C-bus-drive returning -EBUSY when it failed to take the semaphore, but this really should never happen. The semaphore code even has a WARN_ON(ret) to log a kernel backtrace if this does somehow happen, when this happens something is seriously wrong and the system typically freezes soon afterwards. TL;DR: the regmap_read() should never fail with -EBUSY so the retries are unnecessary.
