Title: backport of driver for I2C on Sunrisepoint PCH Status in HWE Next: Fix Committed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Vivid: Fix Committed Bug description: Some newly released laptops talk to touchpad via I2C to provide advanced functions. The new Intel Skylake uses Sunrisepoint PCH, thus the I2C on it needs to to enabled in order to support these touchpads. Intel is still working on the driver. There are six versions so far: v1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/31/255 v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/25/298 v3: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/1/429 v4: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/15/160 v5: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/6/317 v6: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/27/599 The driver supports SPI, UART, and I2C on the Sunrisepoint PCH, but we'll only focus on the I2C part.
