Uh, this is wrong, zero byte should really not transfer anything. We
need to fix that and bail out, so probably something like

	if (!len)
		return -EOPNOTSUPP;

Also, the xlr_func() should mask out I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_QUICK.

Other than that, the patch looks good to me.

Out of curiosity, your first driver had the registers 32bit apart. Now
you can deal with 8bit. Is this configurable on this SoC?

Thanks,
