This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled i2c: at91: manage unexpected RXRDY flag when starting a transfer to the linux-4.2.y-queue branch of the 4.2.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-4.2.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 4.2.8-ckt1. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 4.2.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From e49d9473c5b8f48ab29a621898d280632c87a19c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ludovic Desroches <ludovic.desroches@atmel.com> Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2015 10:38:27 +0100 Subject: i2c: at91: manage unexpected RXRDY flag when starting a transfer commit a9bed6b10bd117a300cceb9062003f7a2761ef99 upstream. In some cases, we could start a new i2c transfer with the RXRDY flag set. It is not a clean state and it leads to print annoying error messages even if there no real issue. The cause is only having garbage data in the Receive Holding Register because of a weird behavior of the RXRDY flag.
