Some I2C bus drivers do not allow zero-lenght data transfers which are

required to start a mesurement with the HIH6130/1 sensor. Nevertheless,

s/mesurement/measurement/

we can overcome this limitation by writing a zero dummy byte. This byte
is ignored by the sensor and was verified to be working with the OMAP
I2C bus driver in a BeagleBone board.

You can simplify this code by introducing a variable to hold
the write length into struct hih6130. This variable can be
initialized with 1 or 0 in the probe function.

        if (i2c_check_functionality(client->adapter, I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_QUICK))
                hih6130->write_length = 0;
        else
                hih6130->write_length = 1;

Then replace above code with

        tmp[0] = 0;
        ret = i2c_master_send(client, tmp, hih6130->write_length);

This way you don't have to call i2c_{get,check}_functionality() repeatedly.

Thanks,
Guenter
