Public bug reported:
[ Impact ]
The spd5118 sensor will not function normally if Intel's SMBus has the
SPD Write Disable bit set. Notably, during a resume, the following
messages would appear because driver is not able to sync back the cached
register values:
[1300273.242285] spd5118 2-0050: Failed to write b = 0: -6
[1300273.242297] spd5118 2-0050: PM: dpm_run_callback(): spd5118_resume
[spd5118] returns -6
[1300273.242309] spd5118 2-0050: PM: failed to resume async: error -6
[ Fix ]
Cherry-pick the following 2 patches:
1. i2c: smbus: introduce Write Disable-aware SPD instantiating functions[1]
2. i2c: i801: Do not instantiate spd5118 under SPD Write Disable[2]
[ Tests ]
1. Install and boot the kernel. Check dmesg. The following message
should not appear:
[ 2.819557] spd5118 2-0050: DDR5 temperature sensor: vendor
0x06:0x32 revision 1.6
2. Suspend the system and resume. The error messages should not appear.
[ Where the problem could occur ]
This makes the spd5118 device not instantiate at all during the i801
controller probe. This was however what the driver author recommended,
so let's do it this way before a better solution appears.
