Yes, I agree with that analysis. All mux actions eventually end up with
an __i2c_transfer() call on the relevant root adapter. Hmm, but not *all*
calls. How about SMBus adapters? Should there not be a similar WARN_ON
in __i2c_smbus_xfer?

But maybe that's not applicable for some reason? Just asking...

Cheers,
Peter
