Except that they would preferably not be called i2c_smbus_*, not being
part of the SMBus subset nor being commonly implemented by SMBus-only
controllers. Finding a proper name for these helpers function might be
tough, as may be figuring out which ones you really want to implement
and which ones aren't worth it.

Also note that this is more or less what regmap is trying to do, so you
may want to check in that direction (see drivers/base/regmap) first.
