Subject: [PATCH 3.16 034/366] hwmon: (pmbus/adm1275) Accept negative page
 register values

3.16.60-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net>

commit ecb29abd4cb0670c616fb563a078f25d777ce530 upstream.

A negative page register value means that no page needs to be
selected. This is used by status register read operations and needs
to be accepted. The failure to do so so results in missed status
and limit registers.

Fixes: da8e48ab483e1 ("hwmon: (pmbus) Always call _pmbus_read_byte in core driver")
