Hi Sonic,

This is news to me, you did not tell this to me before. If there are
hardware optimizations for SMBus then indeed it makes sense to have
different code in the driver for I2C support and SMBus support.

Still, I had several objections to the patch that was submitted in
November 2007 (and resubmitted unchanged one week ago). I really would
like to see them addressed.

Thanks,
