Brian C. Lane 936d193413 Retry losetup if loop_attach fails 
It appears that sometimes the loop device doesn't get setup properly,
this may be a race with other users of loop devices on the system, or
some other mechanism that isn't understood.

To try and prevent total failure when this happens this patch retries
the loop setup 3 times before giving up. Previously it would wait for
the loop device to appear (checking 5 times), that operation is now
executed 3 times with a new losetup attempt each time.

Resolves: rhbz#1589084
