Public bug reported:

SRU Justification:

[Impact]

Support the I2C lock mechanism, otherwise there could be unexpected
behavior when the i2c driver is accessed by several entities like the
linux driver, ATF driver and UEFI driver.

[Fix]

* Support lock and unlock
* replace ioremap_nocache with ioremap

[Test Case]

* Make sure the i2c-mlxbf.c driver is loaded and /dev/i2c-1 is created
* check that ipmitool from the BF->BMC and from the BMC->BF work (this only 
applies on boards with a BMC of course)

[Regression Potential]

Any of the test cases above could be impacted due to these changes.
