i2c: Adding support for Intel iSMT SMBus 2.0 host controller
The iSMT (Intel SMBus Message Transport) supports multi-master I2C/SMBus, as well as IPMI. It's operation is DMA-based and utilizes descriptors to initiate transactions on the bus. The iSMT hardware can act as both a master and a target, although this driver only supports being a master.

Module Parameters
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
* bus_speed (unsigned int)
|
||||
Allows changing of the bus speed. Normally, the bus speed is set by the BIOS
|
||||
and never needs to be changed. However, some SMBus analyzers are too slow for
|
||||
monitoring the bus during debug, thus the need for this module parameter.
|
||||
Specify the bus speed in kHz.
|
||||
Available bus frequency settings:
|
||||
0 no change
|
||||
80 kHz
|
||||
100 kHz
|
||||
400 kHz
|
||||
1000 kHz

Description
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
The S12xx series of SOCs have a pair of integrated SMBus 2.0 controllers
|
||||
targeted primarily at the microserver and storage markets.
|
||||
|
||||
The S12xx series contain a pair of PCI functions. An output of lspci will show
|
||||
something similar to the following:
|
||||
|
||||
00:13.0 System peripheral: Intel Corporation Centerton SMBus 2.0 Controller 0
|
||||
00:13.1 System peripheral: Intel Corporation Centerton SMBus 2.0 Controller 1
