[v4] i2c: i2c-qcom-geni: Parse Error correctly in i2c GSI mode

I2C driver currently reports "DMA txn failed" error even though it's
NACK OR BUS_PROTO OR ARB_LOST. Detect NACK error when no device ACKs
on the bus instead of generic transfer failure which doesn't give any
specific clue.

Make Changes inside i2c driver callback handler function
i2c_gpi_cb_result() to parse these errors and make sure GSI driver
stores the error status during error interrupt.

v3 -> v4:

- Removed Fixes tag as this is not fixing any crash.
- Added Reviewed-by tag.

v2 -> v3:
- Modifed commit log reflecting an imperative mood.

v1 -> v2:
- Commit log changed we->We.
- Explained the problem that we are not detecing NACK error.
- Removed Heap based memory allocation and hence memory leakage issue.
- Used FIELD_GET and removed shiting and masking every time as suggested by Bjorn.
- Changed commit log to reflect the code changes done.
- Removed adding anything into struct gpi_i2c_config and created new structure

Urgh, why do we have i2c and dma changes in single patch? I dont think
they would be dependent

This is generic, why should this be i2c specific... we should set
generic status value

You applied changes to dmaengine driver without my ack! I dont agree to
the approach here, we could do better

This patch has been around for quite some time and there has been
time to review it. Altrady two people have approved it.

This patch has already been merged once via the i2c with the
agreement of everyone, but reverted for a trivial failure.

Your review come after I have merged the patch (I did merge it
even earlier, but forgot to send the notification, which was
anyway sent before your review).

Above all, I appreciate your review, but it wouldn't be fair to
revert it now. If Mukesh is OK, I can do it, otherwise we can
send subsequent patches.

Mukesh, please let me know what's your preference.

Andi

this must be an error from b4 ty. The changes have been added to

pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/andi.shyti/linux.git

branch i2c/i2c-host, As it has been agreed from very long.

Anyway, the changes are in -next. What do we do now? Do I revert
it? Mukesh, can you please agree with Vinod?

Andi

Thanks Vinod and Andi !

It had time and also there was a comment to get sign off from DMA 
maintainers, we have had review and discussion on DMA part too.

Hi Vinod, Since this is already merged, do you have preference to revert 
OR making a new change if any BUG OR design issue ? I can also fix the 
changes you suggest and raise a new patch in case of any real bug OR 
design expectations.

That's not true. The patch was sent during merge window, so that time
obviously does not count. Anything not being a fix sent during merge
window is postponed by many maintainers. Therefore this patch *must be*
considered as sent on 24th of March. You applied it 4 days later, giving
Vinod exactly only four days to react.

You need agreement of other maintainers. Or at least ping them. Did it
happen here?

So you applied it during merge window? How anyone can react to this?

Could you please suggest changes OR approach related comments ? So i can 
make a new change which can clean the merged code ?  Hope that can 
address the concerns.

I dont apply patches to other subsystem without the ack. Either way you
can ask always! 

I will leave it upto you...

Yes, you are totally right; but please, keep in mind that this
patch has some history and I would have loved to hear from you
earlier. Anyway...

... Mukesh, I'm sorry, but I'm going to revert this patch again
until we address all the last minute issues from Vinod. The
silence on this thread is worrying me more than reverting it.

I hope this will be the last time I revert this patch.

Moreover, in order to avoid maintainers' rumble (:)), please
let's try to split patches that are touching more than one
subsystems keeping the logical meainings intact.

I hope this is fine with you, Vinod.

There was merge window, I dont look up during that. Then I had some
family stuff and travel to take care... Things happen.

When in doubt pls ask, a gentle reminder goes long way!

That is best. Very rarely we have a situation where we add
changes which break bisect and it has to be clubbed together. But for
other cases, it should always be split!
