Some ACPI systems list 2 I2C resources for the CM3218 sensor. On these systems the first I2cSerialBus ACPI-resource points to the SMBus Alert Response Address (ARA, 0x0c) and the second I2cSerialBus ACPI-resource points to the actual CM3218 sensor address. >From the ACPI/x86 side devices with more then 1 I2cSerialBus ACPI-resource are handled by the drivers/platform/x86/i2c-multi-instantiate.c code. This code will instantiate "cm32181" i2c_client-s for both resources. Add a check to cm32181_probe() for the client's address being the ARA address, and in that case fail the probe with -ENODEV. On these ACPI systems the sensor may have a SMBus Alert asserted at boot, if this is the case the sensor will not respond to any i2c_transfers on its actual address until we read from the ARA register to clear the Alert. Therefor we must (try to) read a byte from the client with the ARA register, before returning -ENODEV, so that we clear the Alert and when we get called again for the client instantiated for the second I2cSerialBus ACPI-resource the sensor will respond to our i2c-transfers.
