I wonder if bailing out on an unknown flag shouldn't be revisited in general? I mean this will happen again when a new I2C_M_* flag is introduced.
If it's guaranteed that any new flags are optional to handle by the driver, than that is certainly better. I'll post a v3 with that approach.
If there will be a new flag, it is highly likely that it will handle some corner case which only gets applied when there is a I2C_FUNC_* flag guarding it. If the new flag turns out to be mandatory, the (poor) author needs to check with all existing drivers anyhow.
Yep, I suppose that is true :)
I just sent out the v3.
thanks! Mikko
