I'm not sure I read you correctly so, for clarity: the patch
introducing I2C_FUNC_NOSTART finally landed in my tree [1], not
Wolfram's. It will be merged in kernel 3.5.

If you don't want to depend on that, then just use
I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING for now and you can switch to
I2C_FUNC_NOSTART later.
