You missed to add a signed-off-by on your patch.

Maybe it would make sense, in this case, to print some warning message,
as this could be due to a bug either at the hardware or at some place 
at the driver, like the gpio config settings for this device.

Anyway, Antti, your call.

I am on holiday now and dont want to look much these things at the moment.

Having 0x00 or 0xff as chip id is something very very stupid and not exits
in real world. It is good indicator I2C operation was failing. Check
GPIOs, see windows sniffs, add sleep, test if other I2C reads are working
later, etc. to find out more info and fix it properly. In worst case it is
possible that I2C reads are not working at all...

This was a random report for someone who I assisted via e-mail to get 
the latest git clone from antti's tree. Building, enabling debugging and 
getting this information alone took a week. I don't think we have the 
possibility to get a dump from anything. The stick has been working fine 
from my understanding using the 0xff tunerID. How to handle support for 
these 'bugged' tuners, I leave that up to you :)

AFTER your well deserved holiday. Enjoy and have a great time!

Honestly I don't want to add hack like that with this little 
information. It must be found out if all I2C readings are failing, or 
just the first one, or some other condition. Currently there is only two 
register reads on that driver. Guess what happens if someone enhances 
that driver so that one bit from certain register is changed... Set 
register bit 7, current register value is 0x00. Register value will be 
0x7ff as read returns always 0xff :-(

true, do you have some test code, that could test this? or a test module 
that prints some debug information for this specific case? I could then 
have the user in question try it out and report his findings?

Just add like 5 register reads one after another inside attach and print 
out returned values. Or add debug print to register read to see what it 
returns as read is used during tune too. Write different tuner id to 
af9035 firmware to see if it is fw issue. There is million ways to make 
tests and see what happens and make conclusions.
