Well, most probably yes. But I was not really looking for multibus 
support ;)

The functionality needed for Zippy I'm currently working on is just to 
be able to do

i2c_get_bus_num(1); /* Switch to bus 1 */
... do some stuff on bus 1 ...
i2c_get_bus_num(0); /* Switch back to default bus 0 */

And for this having only i2c_get_bus_num() is sufficient. And the only 
tested ;)

Looks like we have to merge that with what is in this patch somehow. 
What are your plans with that branch? Is it intended to go into 
mainline, soon?

It seems to me that multibus_v2 and this patch are somehow orthogonal 
(but yes, they will need some merging).
Regarding omap24xx_i2c.c, multibus_v2 seems to deal mainly with the 
API stuff

http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot/u-boot-i2c.git;a=blobdiff;f=drivers/i2c/omap24xx_i2c.c;h=993b995d34a298d07fbd11bce23f2d0cfdebb40f;hp=1a4c8c9ad2701b550fc1ad0ab2a9fde741902080;hb=899dbf9fbd089a9e8133026be3817e0116f44390;hpb=24d3d6307e1e5d5cddddee399a15e70ef9da8818

while the main part of this patch is to replace all hard coded 
registers by the ability to switch to an other bus.

I will send an updated patch with fixing at least the review comments, 
soon.

Best regards

Dirk
