It also feels quite hand wavy since the punit could do whatever at

there really should be some kind of shared hardware/firmware mutex
with the punit to arbitrate access to the i2c bus.
There is an HW semaphore for I2C access. It is implemented in
drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-baytrail.c and another set from Hans
is adding support for Cherrytrail into it.
