[PATCH v1 1/1] i2c: designware: Add a note about struct dw_scl_sda_cfg usage

From: Andy Shevchenko
Date: Fri Dec 03 2021 - 12:13:27 EST


Add a note about struct dw_scl_sda_cfg usage to discourage people
of using this structure on new platforms. Instead they should try
hard to put the needed information into firmware descriptions.
