Good catch.
Subject came off a bit odd.
[prefix=PATCH] drivers: pmbus: core: Prevent ...
Please use "[PATCH] hwmon: (pmbus/core) Prevent ..."
This me wonder if we should move the check into pmbus_set_page()
instead.
int pmbus_set_page(struct i2c_client *client, int page)
{
...
if (page >= 0 && page != data->currpage) {
...
}
What do you think ?
