+ * @max_num_msgs: maximum number of messages per transfer
+ * @max_write_len: maximum length of a write message
+ * @max_read_len: maximum length of a read message
+ * @max_comb_1st_msg_len: maximum length of the first msg in a combined message
+ * @max_comb_2nd_msg_len: maximum length of the second msg in a combined message
+ *
+ * Note about combined messages: Some I2C controllers can only send one message
+ * per transfer, plus something called combined message or write-then-read.
+ * This is (usually) a small write message followed by a read message and
+ * barely enough to access register based devices like EEPROMs. There is a flag
+ * to support this mode. It implies max_num_msg = 2 and does the length checks
+ * with max_comb_*_len because combined message mode usually has its own
+ * limitations. Because of HW implementations, some controllers can actually do
+ * write-then-anything or other variants. To support that, write-then-read has
+ * been broken out into smaller bits like write-first and read-second which can
+ * be combined as needed.
