-	  Enable driver model for I2C. This SPI flash interface
-	  (spi_flash_probe(), spi_flash_write(), etc.) is then
-	  implemented by the SPI flash uclass. There is one standard
-	  SPI flash driver which knows how to probe most chips
-	  supported by U-Boot. The uclass interface is defined in
-	  include/spi_flash.h, but is currently fully compatible
-	  with the old interface to avoid confusion and duplication
-	  during the transition parent. SPI and SPI flash must be
-	  enabled together (it is not possible to use driver model
-	  for one and not the other).
+	  Enable driver model for I2C. The I2C uclass interface: probe, read,
+	  write or speed, is implemented with the bus drivers uclass operations,
+	  which provides methods for bus setting and data transfer. Each chip
+	  device (bus child) info is kept as parent platdata. The interface is
+	  defined in include/i2c.h. When i2c bus driver supports the i2c uclass,
+	  but the device drivers not, then DM_I2C_COMPAT config can be used as
+	  compatibility layer.
