I'm not sure, but from looking at the other i2c drivers I'd rather think
that the old behaviour of i2c-keywest was correct.  There are only a few
that implement both I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA and I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA, but
none of them write the length byte together with the data.  The commands
are ony different in behaviour when reading: with I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA
a fixed sized block is read from the bus, whereas with
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA the size of the block is variable.  At least that's
how i2c-nforce2, i2c-viapro and i2c-amd8111 implement the commands.

Andreas.
