commit b7069dc37605333d43377b90876b0dcf45e762e1 Author: dechao_gong <[email protected]> AuthorDate: Thu Oct 8 18:52:07 2026 +0800 Documentation/rtl8730e: document the I2C master buses Add a Features bullet and an "i2c" configuration section to the RTL8730E EVB board page describing I2C0-2 as /dev/i2c0-2, the pads the board table registers and the i2ctool scan command, following the pke8721daf board format. Note the two pad constraints that are specific to this chip: a pad reaches exactly one I2C controller (unlike the GPIO and UART crossbars), and the pads inside the analogue audio ranges are driven by the codec and cannot carry I2C.
