Hi,
Get your good point. I will change my code in V6:
+ ret = i2c_imx_dma_request(i2c_imx, phy_addr);
+ if (ret) {
+ if (ret == -EPROBE_DEFER)
+ goto clk_notifier_unregister;
+ else if (ret == -ENODEV)
+ dev_dbg(&pdev->dev, "Only use PIO mode\n");
+ else
+ dev_err(&pdev->dev, "Failed to setup DMA, only use PIO mode\n");
+ }
I think this is what you want to see, right?
