I know I reviewed this already, but here are some more comments based on
converting i915 on top of this...

Should there be a start message similar to the i2c_algo_dp_aux_address()
call in i2c_algo_dp_aux_xfer() here? How would that map out to the
->transfer() function? msg.size = 0?

Ville suggested this should be up to the drivers to decide. Maybe we
could have an aux->max_i2c_message_size (or similar), set by the
drivers, defaulting to 1, and this would chop up the message as
necessary? This could be a follow-up patch.

Should there be a stop message similar to the i2c_algo_dp_aux_stop()
call in i2c_algo_dp_aux_xfer() here? Does not seem as crucial as the
start message because DP_AUX_I2C_MOT is handled above.

Should there be something similar to i2c_dp_aux_reset_bus() here like in
i2c_dp_aux_add_bus()?
