4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c463a158cb6c5d9a85b7d894cd4f8116e8bd6be0 upstream. acpi_gsb_i2c_write_bytes() returns i2c_transfer()'s return value, which is the number of transfers executed on success, so 1. The ACPI code expects us to store 0 in gsb->status for success, not 1. Specifically this breaks the following code in the Thinkpad 8 DSDT: ECWR = I2CW = ECWR /* \_SB_.I2C1.BAT0.ECWR */ If ((ECST == Zero)) { ECRD = I2CR /* \_SB_.I2C1.I2CR */ } Before this commit we set ECST to 1, causing the read to never happen breaking battery monitoring on the Thinkpad 8. This commit makes acpi_gsb_i2c_write_bytes() return 0 when i2c_transfer() returns 1, so the single write transfer completed successfully, and makes it return -EIO on for other (unexpected) return values >= 0.
