we are missing the changelog here. You are at v4 and I need to
see the changes between the versions. For now it's OK, please,
next time don't forget to add the changelog.

One more thing, no need to send patches as --in-reply-to your
previous patch.

the space at the beginning of the line should be removed. I will
take care of it if you won't be asked to send a new version.

why don't we return the error coming from
npcm_i2c_recovery_tgclk() instead of forcing it to ENXIO?
