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. This commit add quirk in the mvebu platform code to check the SoC version and then update the compatible string for the i2c controller according to the revision of the SoC. Currently only some OpenBlocks AX3-4 boards are known to use an A0 revision so the check is done only for these boards.
