Thinking about this more: Why I2C bus 4 not 0? All other boards set up
the PMIC I2C bus to be I2C bus 0 in U-Boot's numbering scheme. I'm not
sure we should deviate from that since it will provide users (running
the i2c command at the U-Boot shell) with an inconsistent experience.
Also, 0x40 is the I2C address that's used before this series, so I don't
think there's a need to pass the value in as a parameter since all
boards use the same value. In fact, that value is part of the AS3722 HW
itself, so I'm not sure that it could actually vary, unless there are
address strapping pins on the chip. Even if so, it seems a bit unlikely
someone would actually use them to select a non-default address, at
least in situations likely to be encountered on any Tegra board.
