[elrepo] el7: Intel Braswell i2c host adapter support

[Björn Gerhart]

Hi folks,

afaik the el7 kernel yet doesn't support the i2c host adapter of the Braswell chipset by Intel. However, it's possible to simply compile a newer release (taken from 3.19) of the i2c-i801 source code against the el7 kernel, and the module seems to work properly.

Is anybody out there already working on a kmod-i2c-i801 rpm package, or otherwise: does it make sense to contribute it for general availability in elrepo?

General rpmbuild knowledge available on my side, but not into contributing for elrepo yet.

Best - Björn
