I suspect we should probably just expose the PMU i2c bus to userland

of doing a kernel driver... I also have not much time.

We _already_ expose it to userland, via the generic PMU
interface.  And *please* don't add an easier-to-use userland
interface to the PMU IIC bus; it's too easy to lock it up /
cause other bad interactions, so if userland needs any more,
a proper driver should be written.  We have enough rope
already :-)

The same applies to the KL and the UNI-N IIC busses.
