I'm not sure what a "Bspec" is, but here is the documents I used:

[DevSNB+]: http://intellinuxgraphics.org/documentation/SNB/IHD_OS_Vol3_Part3.pdf
Section 2.2.2 lists the 6 gmbus ports (gpio pin pairs):
[ 5: HDMI/DPD, 4: HDMIB, 3: HDMI/DPC, 2: LVDS, 1: SSC, 0: VGA ]
2.2.2.1 lists the GPIO registers to control these 6 ports.
2.2.3.1 lists the mapping between 5 of these gmbus ports and the 3
Pin_Pair_Select bits (of the GMBUS0 register). This table is missing
HDMIB (port 101).

[DevIBX]: http://intellinuxgraphics.org/IHD_OS_Vol3_Part3r2.pdf
Section 2.2.2 lists the same 6 gmbus ports plus two 'reserved' gpio ports.
2.2.2.1 lists 8 GPIO registers... however, it says the size of the
block is 6x32, which implies that those 2 reserved GPIO registers
(GPIO_6 & GPIO_7) don't actually exist (or are irrelevant).
2.2.3.1 lists the mapping between the 6 named gmbus ports and the 3
Pin_Pair_Select bits (of the GMBUS0 register). This table has HDMIB.
