If I2C_FUNC_I2C is not supported but I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK is, the
regmap core will use i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() and validate the
return length. It will return -EIO if it does not match. That seems
inconsistent. Also, I am not sure how you know that at least the minimum
required number of bytes is returned if the number of bytes requested
is larger than the number of bytes returned by the chip. Am I missing
something ?
Also, I notice that your patch does not touch tps6598x_read16(). Yet,
according to "TPS65981, TPS65982, and TPS65986 Host Interface Technical
Reference Manual", it appears that the 2-byte command used (0x3f) does
support/use block commands. Is that an oversight or on purpose ?
Thanks,
