the ms5611 driver falsely rejects lots of MS5607-02BA03-50 chips with "PROM integrity check failed" because it doesn't accept a prom crc value of zero as legitimate. according to the datasheet for this chip (and the manufacturer's application note about the prom crc), none of the possible values for the crc are excluded - but the current code in ms5611_prom_is_valid() ends with return crc_orig != 0x0000 && crc == crc_orig datasheet: https://www.te.com/commerce/DocumentDelivery/DDEController?Action=srchrtrv&DocNm=MS5607-02BA03&DocType=Data+Sheet&DocLang=English application note: https://www.te.com/commerce/DocumentDelivery/DDEController?Action=srchrtrv&DocNm=AN520_C-code_example_for_MS56xx&DocType=SS&DocLang=EN i've discussed this whith the original author of the driver (tomasz duszynski) and he indicated that at that time (2015) he was dealing with some faulty chip samples which returned blank data under some circumstances and/or followed example code which indicated crc zero being bad (i can't find any traces of any such online, however). as far as i can tell this exception should not be applied anymore; we've got a few hundred custom boards here with this chip where large numbers of the prom have a legitimate crc value 0, and do work fine, but which the current driver code wrongly rejects. (i can provide some example prom dumps if required.) the attached tiny patch is against 4.19. but that section of the code is unchanged up to and including 6.6.
