cx231xx have 4 I2C buses. The device I'm working with have the tuner at the wrong chip.
As it doesn't support 0 byte transactions, if you try to read from the wrong i2c, it will
just return 0 to all read requests.
So, this kind of message can be very useful if someone sends us a report about a new device.
The changes are small and are printed only in the case of errors, where people will likely
try to reach the developers. So, I think it is a good idea to have it mainstream.
Cheers,
Mauro
