Yes you are right -ENXIO should returned if no ACK was received.
Is there another reason why pch_i2c_getack returned EPROTO?
May be ENXIO was introduced later?

EIO is almost ok, because EIO means something went wrong when performing
an I/O operation, but yes we can return the value from pch_i2c_getack (ENXIO)
to get more detailed informations whats going wrong exactly (no ACK reveiced).

I think we can just replace the -EIO with -ENXIO or do you want to pick up the return
vale of pch_i2c_getack and return that ?
