The current code is selecting the mux channel before each operation and does not benefit from the cached value (data->last_chan). That is because pca954x_select_chan() considers any non-zero values from pca954x_reg_write() as an error. But this function (via __i2c_transfer) returns either a negative error code or the positive number of messages executed. Only check "ret" against negative values to restore the caching.
