The i2c-rcar driver currently prints an error message if the master_xfer
callback fails. However if the bus is being probed then lots of NAKs
will be generated, causing the output of a number of errors printed.

To solve this, disable the print if the error is not -EREMOTEIO.

An example of running i2cdetect:

10: i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15
-- i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15
-- 12 i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15
-- i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15
-- i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15
-- i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15
-- i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15
-- i2c-rcar e6530000.i2c: error -121 : 15

Basically OK. Yet, according to 'fault-codes" it should be -ENXIO. May
be a good time to fix this as well.

Also, you might want to print for -EIO only? Or do you want to see
-EAGAIN, too?

Ok, although the change to the error code should probably be a separate
patch instead of modifying this one.

I'm not sure, I've not seen any EAGAIN replies from the driver.
I will leave this for a future patch.
