Hi Stephen,

Reviving a bit of an old thread, for a question.

Is there any specific reason to use the indirect access method, compared
to the direct method that translates access to an I2C ancillary address
to an I2C-over-AUX transaction (see page 20 of SLLSEH2B) ? The direct
method seems it would be more efficient.
