I made a simple question and you keep hammering on the same argument: in the commit message you say that when the clock changes it generates a deadlock through i2c_xfer. I simply asked if the clock changes how is the new clock value taken by the i2c? If the commit message is leaving room for questions then you need to make your commit message clearer. Andi
