Subject: [PATCH] iio: proximity: lidar-v2: replace i2c block access method with the one already implemented.
Date:   Thu, 13 Sep 2018 11:51:45 +0800
Message-Id: <20180913035145.28056-1-songqiang.1304521@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

This driver tries to access a block of data on a i2c bus and it tries
to manually make a device command frame and a consecutively read frame,
then uses i2c_transfer() to read data. But this has already been
implemented in i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data().
Sorry for not having this device by my hand, which is a little expansive
for me, but I have another i2c device and tested with both i2c_transfer()
and i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() and they all ends the same.
I'm not familiar with the SMBus, don't know if the lidar_smbus_xfer()
function is the same as i2c_smbus_read_block_data()? The original code
is commented with something I'm not sure, but I think if it's a standard
SMBus, it should be able to use in here.
Hoping for someone to explain.
