This isn't strictly true on all devices, though. This is true on
DESIGNWARE_PCI based devices like the Acer C720 and the HP Chromebook
14, but on other platforms that use Cypress trackpads, such as ARM
platforms like the Samsung Chromebook Series 3 DESIGNWARE_PCI is not
required, and will just result in a driver that's never used being
built.

The specific I2C bus that's being used here shouldn't matter here...
that's more of a platform issue. In the case with Chromebooks, it
might make sense to change drivers/platform/chrome/Kconfig so that
CHROMEOS_LAPTOP depends on I2C_DESIGNWARE_PCI, maybe.
