Hi Uwe,

Thanks for the feedack!

The issue I have is that the i2c device emulates several other devices
with existing drivers (pca953x, ds1672, at24) and those drivers don't
have any retry mechanism in place for a retry.

Maybe if I converted those drivers to use regmap I could implement a
regmap with retries in the mfd driver for my device?

Regards,

Tim
