Return -EPROBE_DEFER when dma_request_slave_channel() because DMA driver
have not ready yet.

Move i2c_imx_dma_request() before registering I2C adapter to avoid
infinite loop of .probe() calls to the same driver, see "e8c220fac415
Revert "i2c: imx: improve the error handling in i2c_imx_dma_request()""
and "Documentation/driver-api/driver-model/driver.rst".

Use CPU mode to avoid stuck registering i2c adapter when DMA resources
are unavailable.

Change for V2:
- According to Frank's comments, wrap at 75 char and Simplify fix code
  at i2c_imx_dma_request().
- Use strict patch check, fix alignment warning at i2c_imx_dma_request()

Don't spam the logs if the driver defers probing, it's not a error. And
it looks strange to ignore all other errors here. Either add a comment
here, something like "continue without DMA", or let the function return
0 in case the driver should continue and propagate the error if the
caller should take care of it.

Wouldn't this break probe for all i2c-imx users who have CONFIG_IMX_SDMA
disabled?

Also I am wondering on what kernel version and what configuration
(CONFIG_I2C_IMX=?, CONFIG_IMX_SDMA=?) you have that made you run into
this situation.

I'd have expected that with fw_devlink enabled, the I2C controller wouldn't
be probed before the DMA provider is available.

Cheers,
Ahmad

Hi,
Thank you for your suggestion! I agree with you.
I will change to this logic:
	ret = i2c_imx_dma_request(i2c_imx, phy_addr);
	if (ret) {
		if (ret == -EPROBE_DEFER)
			goto clk_notifier_unregister;
		dev_info(&pdev->dev, "use pio mode\n");
	}

Ret = 0  ----->  enable DMA successfully  -------> no print
Ret!=0  ----->  defer probe ---------> no print and try again
Ret!=0  ----->  fail to enable DMA ------> remind now is using pio mode

Do you think the logic is acceptable?

Yes, the other option is to move the logic into i2c_imx_dma_request()
and let it return 0 in case of DMA or fallback to PIO, or an error in
case of probe defer or a fatal error.

This way the probe function will look like this:

     ret = i2c_imx_dma_request(i2c_imx, phy_addr);
     if (ret)
                return dev_err_probe(&pdev->dev, ret, "Failed to setup DMA\n");

Sorry, I have some different ideas...
1. DMA mode should be optional for i2c-imx, because i2c-imx can accept DMA mode not enabled, because it still can work in CPU mode.
  If we use return dev_err_probe(), we have to return error at i2c_imx_dma_request() for "some fatal error", it will cause i2c_adapter can not be registered, then kill i2c adapter register.
  If we always return 0 at i2c_imx_dma_request(), dev_err_probe will not work forever. So from my point, if DMA is not working well, just output a log to remind now i2c is always
  working at CPU mode, we have no DMA, this is enough.
2. when really defer probe, return dev_err_probe will return defer probe directly, but we still need to goto clk_notifier_unregister branch to free irq, clk_notifier_unregister and disable runtime pm.
  So we still need more judgement at probe function to handle this.

So I prefer this logic:

ret = i2c_imx_dma_request(i2c_imx, phy_addr);
if (ret) {
	if (ret == -EPROBE_DEFER)
		goto clk_notifier_unregister;
	dev_info(&pdev->dev, "use pio mode\n");
}

ACK

>   If we use return dev_err_probe(), we have to return error at i2c_imx_dma_request() for "some fatal error", it will cause i2c_adapter can not be registered, then kill i2c adapter register.

i2c_imx_dma_request should only return an error if PIO mode is not an
option.

ACK

Not quite "dev_err_probe()" will not defer probe directly, the return in
"return dev_err_probe();" does. This should work:

        ret = i2c_imx_dma_request(i2c_imx, phy_addr);
        if (ret) {
                dev_err_probe(&pdev->dev, ret, "Failed to setup  DMA\n");
                goto clk_notifier_unregister;
        }
        

> So I prefer this logic:

This also works, LGTM!
