Subject: [PATCH v2] regmap-i2c: add SMBus byte/word reg16 bus for adapters
lacking I2C_FUNC_I2C

AMD PIIX4 SMBus adapters, present on AMD SP5/EPYC-based platforms
(including Cisco 8000 series routers), support SMBUS_BYTE_DATA and
SMBUS_WORD_DATA but lack I2C_FUNC_I2C and I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK.

When at24 (or any driver) requests a regmap with reg_bits=16 and
val_bits=8 on such an adapter, regmap_get_i2c_bus() finds no matching
bus and returns -ENOTSUPP. The existing regmap_i2c_smbus_i2c_block_reg16
bus type already implements 16-bit addressed reads using only
write_byte_data() + read_byte() primitives, but its selection is gated
on I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK which these adapters lack.

Add a new regmap_smbus_byte_word_reg16 bus that:

READ: reuses regmap_i2c_smbus_i2c_read_reg16() -- sets the 16-bit
address via write_byte_data(addr_lo, addr_hi), then reads
bytes sequentially via read_byte() (EEPROM auto-increments).
Requires only SMBUS_BYTE_DATA.

WRITE: uses write_word_data(addr_hi, (data << 8) | addr_lo) to
encode one data byte per SMBus WORD transaction.
Requires only SMBUS_WORD_DATA. Single-byte writes only.

The new bus is selected in regmap_get_i2c_bus() when reg_bits=16,
val_bits=8, and the adapter has SMBUS_BYTE_DATA | SMBUS_WORD_DATA but
not I2C_FUNC_I2C or SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK. The branch is placed after the
existing I2C_BLOCK_reg16 check so adapters with full block support
continue to use the faster path.

This fixes at24 EEPROM probe failures on PIIX4:
at24 3-0055: probe with driver at24 failed with error -524

No driver changes are required -- at24 already passes reg_bits=16 to
devm_regmap_init_i2c(), which now succeeds.

v1 -> v2: Moved fix from at24 driver into regmap-i2c core per review
feedback from Bartosz Golaszewski and Mark Brown.
