We have a production-level laptop (Lenovo Yoga C630) which is exhibiting
a rather horrific bug.  When I2C HID devices are being scanned for at
boot-time the QCom Geni based I2C (Serial Engine) attempts to use DMA.
When it does, the laptop reboots and the user never sees the OS.

The beautiful thing about this approach is that, *if* the Geni SE DMA
ever starts working, we can remove the C code and any old properties
left in older DTs just become NOOP.  Older kernels with newer DTs (less
of a priority) *still* will not work - but they do not work now anyway.

Hi Lee,

I understand you are in a hurry, but please double check before
sending...

... becasue this paragraph doesn't fit anymore. Needs to be reworded.

As said in the other thread, I don't get it, but this is not a show
stopper for me.

I'd like Vinod to resend his review. Because IMO the change since v2 was
not trivial, so the old rev-by has to be dropped.

Other than that, the code looks good to me!
