Selecting I2C_SMBUS is what device drivers are indeed supposed to do. However doing it from i2c-core seems awkward, because i2c-smbus itself depends on i2c-core. If they end up both built in, I guess it will be fine. But if they are modular, I'm afraid you won't be able to load the modules, because each of them requires the other to be loaded first for proper symbol resolution. -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support
