This was suggested by Mark Brown in response to a patch for adding this functionality only for the s3c2410 bus: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/20/681 I have also modified the i2c-pxa driver to use this new functionality but have no good way to test that patch. Hopefully someone else can test and ack. The patch adding the generic functionality could go in even if the i2c-pxa patch needs changes.
