Hi all,
Sorry for breaking message threading but I was not included in
iterations 3 and 4 of this patch.

I don't get the idea. If segment == 0, this message is never sent, so the
value of field flags doesn't matter. So flags will always be 0 when this
message is sent, so it can be hard-coded.
But from previous discussions my understanding was an agreement on always
using I2C_M_IGNORE_NAK for improved compatibility. So I2C_M_IGNORE_NAK
should be hard-coded, not 0?

s/segment addr/segment/, plus it's abot E-DCC compliance as I understand it,
not DDC.

This can be written:
ret = i2c_transfer(adapter, &msgs[3 - xfers], xfers);
Which is more compact and, I suspect, faster.

Other than this, your code looks reasonable, not so different from what
I submitted 8 months ago actually. But ISTU you can test the code with
real hardware while I couldn't.
With the changes above applied, you can add:
