H A Dfsi-scom.cdiff d46fddd52d11eb6a3a7ed836f9f273e9cf8cd01c Tue Dec 07 04:38:10 CET 2021 Joel Stanley <joel@jms.id.au> fsi: scom: Fix error handling

SCOM error handling is made complex by trying to pass around two bits of
information: the function return code, and a status parameter that
represents the CFAM error status register.

The commit f72ddbe1d7b7 ("fsi: scom: Remove retries") removed the
"hidden" retries in the SCOM driver, in preference of allowing the
calling code (userspace or driver) to decide how to handle a failed
SCOM. However it introduced a bug by attempting to be smart about the
return codes that were "errors" and which were ok to fall through to the
status register parsing.

We get the following errors:

- EINVAL or ENXIO, for indirect scoms where the value is invalid
- EINVAL, where the size or address is incorrect
- EIO or ETIMEOUT, where FSI write failed (aspeed master)
- EAGAIN, where the master detected a crc error (GPIO master only)
- EBUSY, where the bus is disabled (GPIO master in external mode)

In all of these cases we should fail the SCOM read/write and return the
error.

Thanks to Dan Carpenter for the detailed bug report.
