Subject: [PATCH 4.7 42/69] i2c: mux: pca954x: retry updating the mux selection on failure

4.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Rosin <peda@...ntia.se>

commit 463e8f845cbf1c01e4cc8aeef1703212991d8e1e upstream.

The cached value of the last selected channel prevents retries on the
next call, even on failure to update the selected channel. Fix that.
