    Sorry, it s not clear yet.
    
    For instances there is a bus with several secondary master. If each of 
    them request the bus mastership (one at a time), will you accept all by 
    default? Because you can only accept only some of them.

First of all, only devices which have Mastership request event enabled (ENMR slave event)
can request mastership. Second thing is that this device needs to have IBI enabled in 
current master. I accept all such devices. There is no additional logic for now, we can add it
in the future.

I was very busy recently. I'm almost ready to publish my changes related to mastership request.
I'm sorry for the delay.
