If you didn't wire an IRQ from the max7319 to your CPU, you can't easily
use it as an input device. I2C is a polled bus, all transactions are
always initiated from the CPU side. So you would need to 'ask' the chip
constantly for its current state, which is not good.

The INT line should be connected to some GPIO on your PXA so the chip
can actively let the PXA know when any input line stated changed.
Everything else makes very little sense.

How do you enable/disable the chip? As Eric said, the error above
indicates an eletrical issue with the bus.

What are you testing without the chip?
