[PATCH 0/9] drm/i915/intel_i2c: fix gmbus writes and related issues

This patchset addresses a couple of issues with the i915 gmbus implementation:
  * fixes misassigned pin port pair for HDMI-D
  * fixes write transactions when they are the only transaction requested
    (including large >4-byte writes)
  * returns -ENXIO and -ETIMEDOUT as appropriate so upper layers can handled
    i2c transaction failures
  * optimizes the typical read transaction case by using the INDEX cycle

The patchset should apply cleanly onto linus/master.
It is inspired by, but completely supercedes, a similar patch submitted
recently by Benson Leung (bleung at chromium.org).
I'd be happy to rebase on a different tree if necessary.

Note: 
There is one more patch in the set which I have not included here.  It enables
the PCH GMBUS interrupt and makes use of it to eliminate the very slow
'wait_for' polling loop.  This patch was not included, however, because there
is at least one case I have discovered where the i915 driver issues a GMBUS
transaction AFTER its interrupts have been initialized, but BEFORE it they have
been enabled.  Both the gmbus transaction and irq initialization occur during
i915_load_modeset_init(), but the gmbus transaction happens first, during:
  intel_modeset_init()
    intel_setup_outputs()
      intel_lvds_init()
        drm_get_edid()
Is there a way to switch the order of these to events?
Or does it make more sense for the gmbus driver to check a "bool irq_enabled",
and choose whether to poll or use the GMBUS interrupt?
... or both?
