The first variants of Armada XP SoCs (A0 stepping) have issues related to the i2c controller which prevent to use the offload mechanism and lead to a kernel hang during boot. The commit introduces a new the compatible string marvell,mv78230-a0-i2c for the i2c controller. When this compatible string is used the driver disables the offload mechanism and the kernel no more hangs on these SoCs.
