SMBus packet error checking (PEC) is implemented by appending one
additional byte of checksum data at the end of the message. This provides
additional protection and allows to detect data corruption on the I2C bus.

SMBus block reads support variable length reads. The first byte in the read
message is the number of available data bytes.

The combination of PEC and block read is currently not supported by the
Cadence I2C driver.
  * When PEC is enabled the maximum transfer length for block reads
    increases from 33 to 34 bytes.
  * The I2C core smbus emulation layer relies on the driver updating the
    `i2c_msg` `len` field with the number of received bytes. The updated
    length is used when checking the PEC.

Add support to the Cadence I2C driver for handling SMBus block reads with
PEC. To determine the maximum transfer length uses the initial `len` value
of the `i2c_msg`. When PEC is enabled this will be 2, when it is disabled
it will be 1.

Once a read transfer is done also increment the `len` field by the amount
of received data bytes.

This change has been tested with a UCM90320 PMBus power monitor, which
requires block reads to access certain data fields, but also has PEC
enabled by default.

Fixes: df8eb5691c48 ("i2c: Add driver for Cadence I2C controller")

Subject is saying that you adding support for PEC and here you are saying that it is fixing initial commit.

If this is adding new support I think Fixes tag shouldn't be here.

If it is fixing issue subject should be updated and this Fixes tag kept here.

The rest looks good to me.

Shubhrajyoti: Can you please test?

Thanks,
Michal
