staging: gpib: Fix no EOI on 1 and 2 byte writes
EOI (End Or Identify) is a hardware line on the GPIB bus that can be asserted with the last byte of a message to indicate the end of the transfer to the receiving device. In this driver, a write with send_eoi true is done in 3 parts: Send first byte directly Send remaining but 1 bytes using the fifo Send the last byte directly with EOI asserted The first byte in a write is always sent by writing to the tms9914 chip directly to setup for the subsequent fifo transfer. We were not checking for a 1 byte write with send_eoi true resulting in EOI not being asserted. Since the fifo transfer was not executed (fifotransfersize == 0) the retval in the test after the fifo transfer code was still 1 from the preceding direct write. This caused it to return without executing the final direct write which would have sent an unsollicited extra byte. For a 2 byte message the first byte was sent directly. But since the fifo transfer was not executed (fifotransfersize == 1) and the retval in the test after the fifo transfer code was still 1 from the preceding first byte write it returned before the final direct byte write with send_eoi true. The second byte was then sent as a separate 1 byte write to complete the 2 byte write count again without EOI being asserted as above. Only send the first byte directly if more than 1 byte is to be transferred with send_eoi true. Also check for retval < 0 for the error return in case the fifo code is not used (1 or 2 byte message with send_eoi true).
