Are we guaranteed to get a result from command "0"? I am not sure, and
looking at least at i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() I2C_SMBUS_READ with
I2C_SMBUS_BYTE modifier works differently form
I2C_SMBUS_READ/I2C_SMBUS_BYTE_DATA (the former uses a single i2c message
vs 2 for the latter).

Also the form above is what i2c core uses to do detection when adapter
does not implement I2C_SMBUS_QUICK, so I'd rather leave it as it was.

Thanks.
