Looks mostly good already. Thanks Peter for the initial review!

I wonder if you can't pass back the different errors to the upper
layers? Like -ENXIO for NACK and -EIO for bus error? We have a
convention for that and it seems your HW can support it. The different
error codes would then maybe also make the debug outputs obsolete.

I'd think this kinda unusual construct could go then as well by just
returning the error code derived from the interrupt handler above.

Yay! Good use of the i2c_adapter_quirks struct :)
