OK, I guess I can take all the Tegra I2C driver changes through the
Tegra tree if needed. This patch is less trivial than the last, so I
would definitely need Wolfram's ack to do so. I suppose if this ends up
conflicting with e.g. any core work in the I2C tree, I can always give
Wolfram a Tegra branch to merge in first to avoid any issues; If needed,
I'd rather wait until after rc2 or perhaps rc3 before doing that though.
