It's arelady there.

Right, because you cannot toogle the pins at  your  liking  with  the
CPM's I2C controller.

Yes, you can. But this has not been implemented yet. And if  you  do,
you  will  find you have copied 90% of the soft_i2c driver so why not
use this from the beginning? Using HARD_I2C has _zero_ advantage  for
U-Boot.

> b) can I use SOFT_I2C in PPCBoot and CPM I2C (8xx-algo) under linux?

Yes, you can.
