The MEN 14F021P00 Board Management Controller provides an
I2C interface to the host to access the feature implemented in the BMC.
The BMC is a PIC Microntroller assembled on CPCI Card from MEN Mikroelektronik
and on a few Box/Display Computer.
Added MFD Core driver, supporting the I2C communication to the device.
The MFD driver currently supports the following features:
- Watchdog
- LEDs

I personally would prefer if you would retain the original API, which returns
both value
and error code as return value. I don't see the benefit of changing the API as
you did -
it just complicates the code.
Thanks,
Guenter
I think it is ok for a wrapper like this because it does not really change an
API because
it is menf21bmc related.
I did the same in rtc-rx8581, and it was already done in rtc_ds1307.c.
I personally prefer this way because the return of the function and the return
value of the i2c_smbus_read - which is the value read from the device - are
seperated.
If it is a no go for the mfd/wdt core i can change it back to the original
i2c_smbus API.
If it is ok on your side for a wrapper like this, we can let it as it is.
Not my call to make; depends on the mfd maintainer. I would not accept it, as I
see it
as unnecessary, adding complexity, and pointless. Sure, you can always find
examples
for everything somewhere in the kernel, but that doesn't make it better.
