Hi Troy,

sorry for having kept this patch unanswered for so long. I had a
quick look and I have a few comments through the lines.

This last paragraph contains more information than necessary,
please check other similar cases and keep the same format.

(E.g.: "This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the
module will be called i2c-ali1563.". People know already what
compiling as module means :-)).

Please do use a prefix for all the defines here, e.g. SPACEMINT_

no need for unlikely here.

dev_alert is a bit too much, please use dev_err instead.

I don't see a need for likely here.

Please fix the commenting style (refer to
Documentation/process/coding-style.rst).

Besides, please, do not shorten words (err instead of error), we
are not in urge to save comment space. Please reword this comment
to be understood.

why do we need to change to -EINVAL? Doesn't seem like a good
practice

is unlikely necessary? What if ret has a different value?
