ARM: mvebu: armada xp: Generalize use of i2c quirk
commit 5129ee22 upstream. A second product has come to light which makes use of the A0 stepping of the Armada XP SoC. A0 stepping has a hardware bug in the i2c core meaning that hardware offload does not work, resulting in the kernel failing to boot. The quirk detects that the kernel is running on an A0 stepping SoC and disables the use of hardware offload. Currently the quirk is only enabled for PlatHome Openblocks AX3. The AX3 has been produced with both A0 and B0 stepping SoCs. The second product is the Lenovo Iomega IX4-300d. It seems likely that this device will also swap from A0 to B0 SoC sometime during its life. If there are two products using A0, it seems likely there are more products with A0. Also, since the number of A0 SoCs is limited, these products are also likely to transition to B0. Hence detecting at run time is the safest option. So enable the quirk for all Armada XP boards. Tested on an AX3 with A0 stepping.
