[PATCH v1 08/11] i2c: designware-pci: Add a note about struct dw_scl_sda_cfg usage

From: Andy Shevchenko
Date: Tue Dec 07 2021 - 14:22:33 EST


Add a note about struct dw_scl_sda_cfg usage to discourage people
of using this structure on new platforms. Instead they should try
hard to put the needed information into firmware descriptions.
