It's difficult to guess from bunch of "ret=-121" errors what driver and
device actually caused them. Since struct i2c_client has the dev pointer
use that for dev_err_once() in order to see the device and not spam the
log needlessly.

dev_err() is obviously an improvement (as would a better message be) but
dev_err_once() seems like a big jump that we don't normally do for our
I/O errors - transient errors do happen from time to time (especially
when people get their power up sequences wrong) and it can be useful to
know if something is just dead, failed gradually over time or just had a
single transient error.  It's also helpful since a lot of the errors
that do occur result in long timeouts so it's not always clear that
we're grinding through lots of I/Os if we don't say anything.  Am I
missing something about this case?

You are right. This looks like it is either due HW issue or pincontrol misconfiguration after resume and device starts making interrupt storm and acknowledging them fails before I2C is resumed. I switch it to dev_err().
