This patch adds Intel lewisburg SMBus support for iTCO device.

Please state what has changed in v2 of this patch?

Yes, Alexandra, please always include a changelog (between the ---
separator and the diffstat) when posting patch updates.

In this case there is no code change, the only change is the subject.

correct

If I understand correctly, this is a fixup for commit
cdc5a3110e7c3ae793f367285789a6bc39c962dc ("i2c: i801: add Intel
Lewisburg device IDs") which should have included these changes. If so,
please mention it in the commit message. It may also make sense to tag
the patch for stable [v4.4].

It is an addition to that commit, at the time I submitted the commit I wasn't aware that this portion was needed to load dynamically since this part of the code was in flux as well. As it is the driver loads using modprobe. I'll add that to the commit message to make it clear and resend the patch.
