What I was suggesting earlier (or trying to at least) would be
simply something like this:
int defer_native = 0, defer_i2c = 0;
while (defer_native < 7 && defer_i2c < 7) {
...
case DP_AUX_NATIVE_REPLY_NACK:
...
defer_native++;
continue;
}
...
case DP_AUX_I2C_REPLY_DEFER:
...
defer_i2c++;
continue;
}
...
}
