So by default we don't support any of the existing flags except
I2C_M_RD?

#define I2C_M_TEN               0x0010  /* this is a ten bit chip address */
#define I2C_M_RD                0x0001  /* read data, from slave to master */
#define I2C_M_STOP              0x8000  /* if I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING */
#define I2C_M_NOSTART           0x4000  /* if I2C_FUNC_NOSTART */
#define I2C_M_REV_DIR_ADDR      0x2000  /* if I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING */
#define I2C_M_IGNORE_NAK        0x1000  /* if I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING */
#define I2C_M_NO_RD_ACK         0x0800  /* if I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING */
#define I2C_M_RECV_LEN          0x0400  /* length will be first received byte */

How do we work with clients who want to use such flags now ?
