Hi, Stephen
I think if doesn't need to apply the slave address codes, we can use your patch.

Thanks
Wei.

Wei, aren't the following two patches basically the same thing,
except that yours also sets the slave address register, and is a bit
more wordy:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg05464.html
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg05437.html

Upon further inspection, I don't think any of the other patches I
posted conflict with the other patch you posted.
