Exactly. The slave can stretch the clock if the value to be sent to the
master needs some processing first, but it must deliver something.

I overlooked that your first patch changed this code, sorry. Now I see
the problem.

What about not ifdeffing the inline function and keep the build error
whenever someone uses it without I2C_SLAVE being selected?

Thanks,
