[ Upstream commit d1baf7a3a3 ]
Make sure that the support of PEC is determined before the read of other
registers. Otherwise the validation of PEC can trigger an error on the read
of STATUS_BYTE or STATUS_WORD registers.
The problematic scenario is the following. A device with enabled PEC
support is up and running and a kernel driver is loaded.
Then the driver is unloaded (or device unbound), the HW device
is reconfigured externally (e.g. by i2cset) to advertise itself as not
supporting PEC. Without the move of the code, at the second load of
the driver (or bind) the STATUS_BYTE or STATUS_WORD register is always
read with PEC enabled, which is likely to cause a read error resulting
with fail of a driver load (or bind).
