CRC should be available within the next static frame. So the idea for a
tests is to do, for example, a page flip and immediately attempt to read
the CRC. Since we cannot exactly synchronize the flip getting committed,
debugfs read and CRC generation, all that the kernel can do correctly is
check if the CRC is available within a frame and read it.

I think the reason for trying 6 times was to somehow get a non-zero CRC.
But that means tests end up reading CRC of a different frame.
