How about i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() ? The tricky part will be to handle the
I2C adapters that implement .smbus_xfer(), as those won't go through
i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated(). i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() relies on i2c_transfer(),
which itself relies on the I2C adapter's .master_xfer() operation. We're thus
only concerned about the drivers that implement both .smbus_xfer() and
master_xfer(), and there's only 4 of them (i2c-opal, i2c-pasemi, i2c-powermac
and i2c-zx2967). Maybe the simplest solution would be to force the emulation
path if I2C_CLIENT_SCCB && !I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING && ->master_xfer !=
NULL ?
Wolfram, what do you think ?
