Subject: Re: [PATCH v1 4/7] i2c-mlxbf.c: incorrect base address passed during
 io write


Thanks for the heads up.

> didn't have any impact on the overall functionality of the read/write transactions. Writing to smbus->io + 0x18 (aka  MLXBF_I2C_CAUSE_OR_CLEAR) corresponds to sc_low_timeout register which sets the timeout value before a read/write transaction aborts. 

I understand. Could we have the above sentences (or something similar)
in the commit message then?
