Neil Horman 13f35ac14c i2c: Adding support for Intel iSMT SMBus 2.0 host controller
The iSMT (Intel SMBus Message Transport) supports multi-master I2C/SMBus,
as well as IPMI.  It's operation is DMA-based and utilizes descriptors to
initiate transactions on the bus.

The iSMT hardware can act as both a master and a target, although this
driver only supports being a master.

Kernel driver i2c-ismt
Supported adapters:
* Intel S12xx series SOCs
Authors:
Bill Brown <bill.e.brown@intel.com>
Module Parameters
-----------------
* bus_speed (unsigned int)
Allows changing of the bus speed. Normally, the bus speed is set by the BIOS
and never needs to be changed. However, some SMBus analyzers are too slow for
monitoring the bus during debug, thus the need for this module parameter.
Specify the bus speed in kHz.
Available bus frequency settings:
0 no change
80 kHz
100 kHz
400 kHz
1000 kHz
Description
-----------
The S12xx series of SOCs have a pair of integrated SMBus 2.0 controllers
targeted primarily at the microserver and storage markets.
The S12xx series contain a pair of PCI functions. An output of lspci will show
something similar to the following:
00:13.0 System peripheral: Intel Corporation Centerton SMBus 2.0 Controller 0
00:13.1 System peripheral: Intel Corporation Centerton SMBus 2.0 Controller 1
