What do we mean here by whole class of i2c adapters. Does it mean i2c controller variants for different SOC from same vendors ?
Are there any examples available to make things clear ?
Additionally this implies that algo driver is not a MUST. All the controller specific code can be put into the adapter driver itself... am I correct ?
