Done.


Next quirk with the DS28E17: It can do an arbitrary number of write
messages, followed by ONE read message in one transfer. As there is no
"Read Without Stop Condition".

My driver code just ignores the fact there always is a Stop Condition
after a read. As the DS28E17 is hardly ever used in a multi-master
setup, that should be okay.

For the combined transfer the DS28E17 also supports, my driver code
checks if all of the conditions are met inside its
i2c_master_transfer() function and uses that function automatically
when applicable.


The current quirks flags only allows to limit the number of messages
to two in general. How to announce the behaviour correctly?


Kind regards
