The PRINTD is irrelevant.  If these platforms really want to debug single I2C
operations, they can add the code back.  It's just debug code, so I would think
that it's not worth sacrificing the improved code simplicity just for that.

I ran a couple tests, and u-boot.bin didn't change in size, but technically, it
should be smaller because the compiler will optimize the code into a normal call
to i2c_read or i2c_write.

Either way, at least the source code is smaller.
