    Subject: [PATCH v5] drivers: ipmi: Support raw i2c packet in IPMB
    
    Many IPMB devices doesn't support smbus protocol and current driver support only smbus devices. Added support for raw i2c packets.
    
    User can define i2c-protocol in device tree to use i2c raw transfer.
    
    Asmaa >> It would be good if you can rephrase the above description as follows:
    "The ipmb_dev_int driver only supports the smbus protocol at the moment. Add support for the i2c protocol as well. There will be a variable passed by the device tree or ACPI table which determines whether the protocol is i2c or smbus."
    
    Or at least fix the following: 
    "Many IPMB devices doesn't" -> "Many IPMB devices don't"
    "current driver support" -> "current driver supports"
    
    Besides my above comment:
