No, it is wrong. You need to update the status variable in the case of timeout.
It is used further in nmk_i2c_xfer_one. You could perhaps use

if (timeout == 0) {
...and the rest of the code as is
}

Looking at the patch context, such code comes later.

But it causes regressions; without looking at the "later" code, we can't afford merging
this code now.

Later as in "a few lines later" not "some time later". Or am I missing
something else?
