Subject: [PATCH 0/4] occ: fsi and hwmon: Fixes for polling un-initialized OCC

In the event that the OCC is not initialized when the driver sends a poll
command, the driver may receive an invalid response. This isn't an error
condition unless there is no valid response before the timeout expires. So
change the starting sequence number and check for the un-initialized OCC
state before returning the response in order to detect this condition and
continue waiting if necessary.

Eddie James (4):
  fsi: occ: Don't accept response from un-initialized OCC
  fsi: occ: Log error for checksum failure
  hwmon: (occ) Start sequence number at one
  hwmon: (occ) Print response status in first poll error message
