[SRU][OEM-OSP1-B][PATCH 2/2] UBUNTU: SAUCE: Input: i8042 - fix the selftest retry logic

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1866734

It returns -NODEV at the first selftest timeout, so the retry logic
doesn't work. Move the return outside of the while loop to make it real
retry 5 times before returns -ENODEV.

BTW, the origin loop will retry 6 times, also fix this.
