Due to a HW issue, in some scenarios the LAST bit might remain set. This will cause an unexpected NACK after reading 16 bytes on the next read. Example: if user tries to read from a missing device, get a NACK, then if the next command is a long read ( > 16 bytes), the master will stop reading after 16 bytes. To solve this, if a command fails, check if LAST bit is still set. If it does, reset the module.
