In ltc_wait_ready(), we have:
/*
* LTC3883 does not support LTC_NOT_PENDING, even though
* the datasheet claims that it does.
*/
mask = LTC_NOT_BUSY;
if (data->id != ltc3883)
mask |= LTC_NOT_PENDING;
The semantics of this code is now different: It means that on
LTC3883 only bit 6 is checked; previously, it was bit 5. I agree
that the above change makes sense, but it doesn't seem correct
to drop the check for bit 5 on LTC3883. Maybe remove the if() above
and always check for bit 5 and 6 ? Or should bit 4 be checked
on parts other than LTC3883 ?
#define LTC_NOT_TRANSITIONING BIT(4)
...
mask = LTC_NOT_BUSY | LTC_NOT_PENDING;
if (data->id != ltc3883)
mask |= LTC_NOT_TRANSITIONING;
Thanks,
