![]() i915 has a hw i2c controller (gmbus) but for a bunch of stupid reasons we need to be able to fall back to the bit-banging algo on gpio pins. The current code sets up a 2nd i2c controller for the same i2c bus using the bit-banging algo. This has a bunch of issues, the major one being that userspace can directly access this fallback i2c adaptor behind the drivers back. But we need to frob a few registers before and after using fallback gpio bit-banging, so this horribly fails. The new plan is to only set up one i2c adaptor and transparently fall back to bit-banging by directly calling the xfer function of the bit- banging algo in the i2c core. To make that possible, export the 2 i2c algo functions. v2: As suggested by Jean Delvare, simply export the i2c_bit_algo vtable instead of the individual functions.
