I am not in favour of this. In case of a stalled bus, this can easily
flood the logs. If it is for debugging, it should also be dev_dbg. And
then, it probably can also be added when needed. I mean the errno is
quite descriptive, no?

[PATCHv2 6/9] i2c: xiic: Add a debug msg in case of timeout

2015-06-17 Thread Shubhrajyoti Datta
Currently we return silently upon a timeout.
Adding an error message to aid debugability. Not
 a functional change.
