This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iio: accel: mma8452: ignore the return value of reset operation to my char-misc git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git in the char-misc-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From bf745142cc0a3e1723f9207fb0c073c88464b7b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Haibo Chen <haibo.chen@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2022 19:31:58 +0800 Subject: iio: accel: mma8452: ignore the return value of reset operation On fxls8471, after set the reset bit, the device will reset immediately, will not give ACK. So ignore the return value of this reset operation, let the following code logic to check whether the reset operation works.
