The analogix_dp_transfer() will return -EBUSY if num_transferred is zero.
But sometimes we will send a bare address packet to start the transaction,
like drm_dp_i2c_xfer() show:
	......
	/* Send a bare address packet to start the transaction.
	 * Zero sized messages specify an address only (bare
	 * address) transaction.
	 */
	msg.buffer = NULL;
	msg.size = 0;
	err = drm_dp_i2c_do_msg(aux, &msg);
	......

In this case, the msg->size is zero, so the num_transferred will be zero too.
We can't return -EBUSY here, let's we return num_transferred if num_transferred
equals msg->size.

I might be missing something but, looking at the code, I don't see any
possibility of num_transferred ever being different than msg->size. To
be honest, it doesn't seem to even make any sense keeping the local
variable there, because msg->size can be simply always returned, as
errors are handled by jumping to aux_error label.

Best regards,
Tomasz

Yeah, I agree with you.
The better way to fix this issue is to revert the changes 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9411711/
(returning num_transferred directly may be better here)

Maybe we can revert the changes above with some new comment.
@Sean, How do you think about Tomasz's comment?

Thanks
Zain

I think it's still not enough to clean up the code completely. It
should be just enough to remove num_transferred completely and simply
return msg->size at the end.

Tomasz
