[PATCH v2] I2C: busses: i2c-eg20t Do not print error message in syslog if no ACK received

[Andreas Werner]

Revision 2:
	- delete the pch_err completly instead of changing to pch_dbg
	  because there is already a pch_dbg at the function who calls
	  pch_i2c_getack.
	- Fixed message line issue

Using the i2c-eg20t driver and call i2cdetect or probe on the bus,
the driver will print a lot of error messages if there was no ACK
received.

i2cdetect normally print a table with all the available devices. If there
is no device on the address, the table will be empty.
Currently with the i2c-eg20t driver, the table is not visible because
the error messages destroy the table.

Error message: pch_i2c_getack return -71

This patch prevent the driver to print the messages to syslog.
The pch_i2c_wait_for_check_xfer function is the only one who is
calling pch_i2c_getack, and there is already a dbg print if it fails,
so we can delete the pch_err in pch_i2c_getack completly.

Fixed print message to be a one liner so we can grep for the
error message.

Tested on Intel Atom E6xx and Eg20t Chipset.

That could be fixed to -ENXIO according to

What about returning the value we got from pch_i2c_getack?

Yes you are right -ENXIO should returned if no ACK was received.
Is there another reason why pch_i2c_getack returned EPROTO?
May be ENXIO was introduced later?

EIO is almost ok, because EIO means something went wrong when performing
an I/O operation, but yes we can return the value from pch_i2c_getack (ENXIO)
to get more detailed informations whats going wrong exactly (no ACK reveiced).

I think we can just replace the -EIO with -ENXIO or do you want to pick up the return
vale of pch_i2c_getack and return that ?

Imperfect review :)

The latter. As a rule of thumb, it is usually more sustainable to pass
through error codes. Overloading them should only be done when really
necessary IMO.

Ok, if that will be ok in pch_i2c_wait_for_check_xfer i will resend 
the patch.

        ret = pch_i2c_getack(adap);

        if (ret)
                pch_dbg(adap, "Receive NACK for slave address setting\n");

Hmm, the cast looks ugly. Looking at the driver more closely, my
preferred solution would be to elimiate the getack function and just do
that directly in wait_for_check_xfer:

	if (ioread32(adap->pch_base_address + PCH_I2CSR) & PCH_GETACK) {
		pch_dbg ...
		return -ENXIO;
	}

Something like that...

Sometimes its really usfull to look closely :-)
I agree you, because the function is just called one time, so
we can really delete this function.

I can't do this for every patch right from the beginning since my time
is limited. I usually start with letting people sort it out themselves.
