The BIT() cleanup is a patch by Benjamin Tissoires ("i2c: i801: use
BIT() macro for bits definition"), I thought you had applied it already
so I rebased my patch on it, but it turns out I was wrong. You could
just have used v1 of the patch ;-)

Your changes are obviously correct, but you'll have to solve the merge
conflict again when applying Benjamin's patch, sorry.

Thanks,
