Subject: [PATCH 1/2] i2c: i801: Detect SPD Write Disable and expose as adapter quirk
Date: Thu,  5 Feb 2026 13:29:24 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260205102942.28745-2-tinsaetadesse2015@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260205102942.28745-1-tinsaetadesse2015@gmail.com>

Detect SPD Write Disable in SMBHSTCFG and expose it through
I2C adapter quirk. The I2C client driver may decide whether
SPD write operations are supported without implementing
device-specific policies in the SMBus controller driver.
