Recently we have been seing some reports about PIO mode not working properly.

- http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg11985.html

Let's use DMA mode even for small transfers.

Without this patch, i2c reads the incorrect sgtl5000 version on a mx28evk when
touchscreen is enabled:

It also causes sgtl5000 register write failure [1].  Changing it back to
DMA mode fixes the failure.  So,

I still plan to take another look at the PIO mode, but higher priority
things keep popping up in front of me. So this patch is:

Ok, update. So far I arrived at a point where I can avoid the PIO trouble.

If I only do transfers shorter or equal in length to 3 bytes via PIO, it works 
as expected. If the transfer is longer, the LA shows very long transfer 
happening actually. Therefore, the pumping of data in loop to/from PIO via the 
DATA register doesn't work.

I will update you more later, once I figure out something else. Now I need some 
sleep.

Any comment about this patch, please?

If you are happy with it, could we please have it applied into stable?

3.10 is currently broken without this patch.

Hi, either this or the PIO fix, but that's a RFC and quite a big slab of change 
which still needs some work. So please apply this and let's try the PIOfix for 
3.11 or 3.12.

Yes, the big question is if we want to use this patch or fix the PIO. I think 
this one is much less intrusive, so I'd vouch for yours for 3.10 .

Correct. Also according to Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt :

"Rules on what kind of patches are accepted, and which ones are not, into the
"-stable" tree:

....
 - It cannot be bigger than 100 lines, with context."

Your PIO fix is really appreciated, but it surpasses 100 lines, so it
would be better if we go with this one first so that it can reach
3.10, and then we can use your PIO fix later.

That one is not a hard and fast rule, but small localised fixes are
preferred if possible.
