3.16.42-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 7f638c1cb0a1112dbe0b682a42db30521646686b upstream.
smbus functions return -ve on error, 0 on success. However,
__i2c_transfer() have a different return signature - -ve on error, or
number of buffers transferred (which may be zero or greater.)
The upshot of this is that the sense of the test is reversed when using
the mux on a bus supporting the master_xfer method: we cache the value
and never retry if we fail to transfer any buffers, but if we succeed,
we clear the cached value.
Fix this by making pca954x_reg_write() return a negative error code for
all failure cases.
Fixes: 463e8f845cbf ("i2c: mux: pca954x: retry updating the mux selection on failure")
