[RFC] I2C-MPC: Fix up error handling

Hi all,

Could anyone please comment on this i2c-mpc patch, and give it some
testing on different systems? I'm fine with the error propagation
fixes, but less fine with the random resets being added, and rather
unhappy with the "retry once more just in case" thing, which I think,
if really needed, should instead be implemented using the standard
i2c_adapter.retries mechanism.

Thanks.

From: Kumar Gala <galak at kernel.crashing.org>

* If we have an Unfinished (MCF) or Arbitration Lost (MAL) error and
  the bus is still busy reset the controller.  This prevents the
  controller from getting in a hung state for transactions for other
  devices.

* Fixed up propogating the errors from i2c_wait.
