Not only that, it's afaik about doing i2c bus multiplexing where the
multiplexers are themselves i2c devices - E.G. stuff where you might
need to recursively call into the i2c core.

I have been doing i2c multiplexers where the multiplexers themselves
are not controlled through i2c for years without problems.

I afaik even posted an example driver back when Dave posted his
multiplex hack.
