I see better now and I think we need to drop this patch. It looks like
the driver supports only SMBUS_QUICK_WRITE which can be used for
scanning devices. The driver probably works with 'i2cdetect -q'. This
will regress if I apply the patch.

It seems it can't do SMBUS_QUICK_READ thus the extra check in the code.

I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_QUICK should have been split up in READ and WRITE to
support this scenario.

Are my assumptions correct?
