Has this the same effect as just not loading the i2c-i801 driver? Or what other functions then attaching to the SMBus has the i2c-i801?

It does:
laptop-mali:/home/mali# i2cdetect -l
i2c-0 smbus SMBus I801 adapter at 18e0 SMBus adapter
laptop-mali:/home/mali# cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
temperature: 41 C
laptop-mali:/home/mali# i2cdetect 0
WARNING! This program can confuse your I2C bus, cause data loss and worse!
I will probe file /dev/i2c-0.
I will probe address range 0x03-0x77.
