4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <[email protected]>


[ Upstream commit 0d130367abf582e7cbf60075c2a7ab53817b1d14 ]

Make sure to log an error on short transfers when reading a device
register.

Also clear the provided buffer (which if often an uninitialised
automatic variable) on errors as the driver currently does not bother to
check for errors.
