Now this is very odd. I'd assumed the error messages I was getting were
just noise, but the commit you point me to uses KERN_ERR instead -- and so
I get a brief storm of these messages on boot on my target:
[ 20.667923] i2c: error: exhausted retries
[ 20.671962] i2c: msg_num: 0 msg_idx: -2000 msg_ptr: 0
[ 20.677113] i2c: ICR: 000007e0 ISR: 00000002
[ 20.677128] i2c: log: [00000446:000007e0]
This is repeated nine times in total with exactly the same numbers. Any
thoughts as to what this means? Other than these messages on startup my
I2C sensors seem to work perfectly well.
