Good catch! Yes, makes total sense to me. I think it's like you said,
would be better to do both:

1. For 1-point trimming architectures: don't calculate error2, to
avoid confusion
2. For 9-bit temp length architectures: always set the shift variable
to 9, again, to avoid confusion and possible bugs

As I see it, the actual reason why that confusion happened in the
first place, is that the data is not really separated from the code in
this driver. Right now exynos_tmu_match[] table contains SOC_ARCH_*
constants for each compatible, and actual features for each platform
are devised in run-time (e.g. in exynos_map_data_data() switch, and
all other places where data->soc is checked). Because of all those
"ifs" the code looks very non-linear, hard to read, bug prone, and may
even reduce the performance. A better approach would be to extract all
possible data into some const structure containing all features for
each platform, and assign that const structure to corresponding .data
for each compatible. Maybe also add .temp_length field containing 8 or
9 accordingly. Having all that done, all the platform features will be
known at compile time and collected in one place, simplifying the
actual driver's code (most of all those ifs and switches will go
away). One example of such approach is drivers/watchdog/s3c2410_wdt.c.
This way the sanitize function could look something like this:

8<------------------------------------------------------------------------------->8
static void sanitize_temp_error(struct exynos_tmu_data *data, u32 trim_info)
{
    data->temp_error1 = trim_info & data->tmu_temp_mask;
    if (!data->temp_error1 ||
         data->temp_error1 < data->min_efuse_value  ||
         data->temp_error1 > data->max_efuse_value)
             data->temp_error1 = data->efuse_value & data->tmu_temp_mask;

    if (data->cal_type == ONE_POINT_TRIMMING)
        return;

    data->temp_error2 = (trim_info >> data->tmu_temp_shift) &
data->tmu_temp_mask;
    if (!data->temp_error2)
        data->temp_error2 = (data->efuse_value >>
data->tmu_temp_shift) & data->tmu_temp_mask;
}
8<------------------------------------------------------------------------------->8

So this data driven approach doesn't leave much space for mistakes.
Anyways, I'm not asking you to do such rework, it's just my
understanding on the cause of such issues.

Thanks!
