we can overcome this limitation by writing a zero dummy byte. This byte
is ignored by the sensor and was verified to be working with the OMAP
I2C bus driver in a BeagleBone board.

You can simplify this code by introducing a variable to hold
the write length into struct hih6130. This variable can be
initialized with 1 or 0 in the probe function.
if (i2c_check_functionality(client->adapter, I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_QUICK))
hih6130->write_length = 0;
else
hih6130->write_length = 1;
Then replace above code with
tmp[0] = 0;
ret = i2c_master_send(client, tmp, hih6130->write_length);
This way you don't have to call i2c_{get,check}_functionality() repeatedly.
Thanks,
