Subject: [PATCH] i2c: dev: prevent adapter retries being set as minus value
If set adapter->retries to minus value from user space via ioctl,
will make __i2c_transfer and __i2c_smbus_xfer jump the calling to
adapter->algo->master_xfer and adapter->algo->smbus_xfer that
registered by the underlying bus drivers, and return value 0 to
all the callers. The bus driver will never be accessed anymore by
all users, besides, the users may still get successful return value
with no any error or information log print out.
