But what is this?

I2C buses are usually just plain old bias-high-impedance, high-z
or open drain, wire-or or whatever you want to call it.

But now there is some special i2c mode, huh?

The description is pretty much "it is what it is"... can we have
some explanation about what this means electrically speaking
and why you cannot use bias-high-impedance?

I'll try to get some more info, but so far I only found what I wrote in the bindings.

Neil
