I guess Stefan is not looking for legacy SMBUS support, instead the
SIO I2C device on device 24 on BayTrail. It is currently not
supported. The IP used on BayTrail is from Synopsis Designware, and
this I2C IP is also seen on Intel Quark. It is possible we can reuse
U-Boot Synopsis I2C driver on Intel platform, with adaptations to PCI.
