For the record, I have just checked the DSDT dump I have from
Elkhart Lake machine and BIOS provides those counters for devices
\_SB.PCI0.I2C0 .. \_SB.PCI0.I2C5 (6 devices altogether).
So, BIOS is quite aware of the interface and patches are not needed.
I rather add a comment there that these tables in the driver shouldn't
be spread and expanded anymore (at least by Intel).
