Thanks for the info. If the i2c controller allows word read
then the right thing is to always use it.
Just check for I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_READ_WORD_DATA with
i2c_check_functionality()
If it's supported use i2c_smbus_read_word_swapped()
if not, do the i2c_smbus_read_byte() approach.
We don't need to want this in DT as it is a property of the smbus
controller, not this device.
