My perspective is that baking P8 knowledge into the I2C SCOM operations
 makes the code surprising. Maybe renaming the functions is enough,
something like p8_occ_getscom(). To me it doesn't seem like much cost
in complexity to separate the transport from implementation-specific
quirks with the addressing, and gaining a general approach in the
process.

Maybe Joel can weigh in here?
