The I2C Transaction Generator offloads CPU from managing I2C
transfer step by step.

This feature is currently only available on Armada XP, so usage of
this mechanism is activated through device tree.

Based on the work of Piotr Ziecik and rewrote to use the new way of
handling multiples i2c messages.

Same comment as in the last version: What about be32_to_cpu and friends
instead of the loops (here and later)?

We can't use be32_to_cpu and friends, because one of the stop condition of this
loop is the length of the msg.

For reading from msg->buf we could consider to mask the irrelevant part.But for
writing to msg->buf it would imply to write outside of the allocated buffer!

Do you agree to not change anything on this patch?

Thanks,

Hi,

here is the review. BTW have you tested with and without the offload
engine?

-EINVAL?

What about:

	local_buf[8] = { 0 };

	memcpy(local_buf, msg->buf, msg->len);
	cpu_to_be32(...)

? A lot less lines and be32 macros are likely more efficient. Copy loop
probably, too.

Do you need to write the 0 in case of I2C_M_RD?

!= 0 is superfluous

Same idea as above?

Initializing data_reg_* is the same for both calls to
update_offload_data, so it could be moved into the function.
Probably not needed when using the local_buf idea.

needs to be adjusted when using -EINVAL above. I'd prefer the error case
in the else branch, though. Easier to read.

For now OK, if there are more users, someone will need to convert it to
be included in match_data.

'false' instead of 0.

OK I will do it here also as in both cases the number of lines will be
shorter, but for small amount of data I am not sure it will be faster.
