[RFT PATCH] regmap-i2c: Only use I2C_FUNC_I2C if val_bits == 8
From: Guenter Roeck
Date: Fri Jun 24 2016 - 22:54:20 EST
On chips with a register value size of 16 bits, I2C block reads will
typically not return the expected values. Instead, returned values
are most likely undefined if an operation crosses a register boundary.
This can be observed, for example, with a TMP102 connected to an omap
i2c controller. With this chip, the initial regmap read operation to fill
the register cache looks as follows (debug log from modified kernel).
omap_i2c 48070000.i2c: MSG[0]: add=0x0048, len: 1, flags: 0x0
omap_i2c 48070000.i2c: [0] 0x00

Nishanth,
it would be great if you can test this patch, to see if it solves the problem
you had observed. Please note that https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9191185/
needs to be applied first (it is available in next-20160624).
