Change 21537dc driver PMBus polling of MFR_COMMON from bits 5/4 to
bits 6/5. This fixs a LTC297X family bug where polling always returns
not busy even when the part is busy. This fixes a LTC388X and
LTM467X bug where polling used PEND and NOT_IN_TRANS, and BUSY was
not polled, which can lead to NACKing of commands. LTC388X and
LTM467X modules now poll BUSY and PEND, increasing reliability by
eliminating NACKing of commands.

In ltc_wait_ready(), we have:

	/*
         * LTC3883 does not support LTC_NOT_PENDING, even though
         * the datasheet claims that it does.
         */
        mask = LTC_NOT_BUSY;
        if (data->id != ltc3883)
                mask |= LTC_NOT_PENDING;

The semantics of this code is now different: It means that on
LTC3883 only bit 6 is checked; previously, it was bit 5. I agree
that the above change makes sense, but it doesn't seem correct
to drop the check for bit 5 on LTC3883. Maybe remove the if() above
and always check for bit 5 and 6 ? Or should bit 4 be checked
on parts other than LTC3883 ?

#define LTC_NOT_TRANSITIONING		BIT(4)
...
        mask = LTC_NOT_BUSY | LTC_NOT_PENDING;
        if (data->id != ltc3883)
                mask |= LTC_NOT_TRANSITIONING;

Guenter
