I think there are now 3 drivers in my queue which are not fully I2C
compatible but more supporting the very minimum to, say, read an eeprom.
I am not feeling well to allow them to use I2C_FUNC_I2C. So, I want to
think about ways how to communicate deficiencies like "only 255 byte" or
"only WRRD messages" to users of that I2C controller. This is most
likely not happening before 3.19. But assistance is very welcome.
