(Not an issue for merging)

Have you looked at a "mode" by which you implement just enough of the
slave support to decode smbus notifications ?

This looks like it could be useful when using pmbus devices, as some of
them use smbus notifications fairly often.

Today only one driver calls i2c_handle_smbus_host_notify() (the Intel
one of course).

Cheers,
Ben.
