I enabled it because the ANX6345 eDP-bridge is on that bus. There is
no linux (mainline) driver for this chip at the moment, the bootloader
initializes it. However I'm using the i2c-dev driver to read (and maybe)
change some register values from user space.

i2cdetect sees devices at 0x38, 0x39 and 0x3d - all of which might
be the ANX6345. I haven't looked into this in detail.

Since you are asking: Actually the teres has a "header" with usb-otg,
spi, i2c1 and some gpios, but it isn't exposed on the exterior of the
case and nothing is connected to it. So I didn't bother with adding
nodes for this in DT. Curious what olimex are planning to do with that.

Thanks for your review,
Harald
