Hm I'm confused here...

arch/arm/boot/dts/[ste-]stuib.dtsi does define this stuff
so forget about the misplaced comments.

For *all* HREF boards. As it is included from both
[ste-]hrefprev60.dts and [ste-]hrefv60plus.dts

However it is only really mounted on some of the HREFs,
and the following stays valid:

So it would be really nice to keep this autodetection.

What would be nice if we could mark all the STUIB as
"disabled" in the device trees, and then augment the device tree
at boot depending on if we find something at 0x44 as in this
test:

> - ret = i2c_smbus_xfer(i2c0, 0x44, 0, I2C_SMBUS_WRITE, 0,
> - I2C_SMBUS_QUICK, NULL);

And then mark these as "okay" in the DT.

That's pretty high-tech but I bet we can pull it off (and set
a good example).

Yours,
Linus Walleij
