drivers/video/i810/i810-i2c.c: fix i2c bus handling
These patch fix a longstanding bug in the i810 frame buffer driver.
The handling of the i2c bus is wrong: A 1 bit should not written to the
i2c, these will be done by switch the i2c to input. Driving an 1 bit
active is against the i2c spec.
An active driven of a 1 bit will result in very strange error, depending
which side is the more powerful one. In my case it depends on the
temperature of the Display-Controller-EEprom: With an cold eprom a got
the correct EDID datas, with a warm one some of the 1 bits was 0 :-(
The same bug is also in the intelfb driver in the file
drivers/video/intelfb/intelfb_i2c.c. The functions intelfb_gpio_setscl()
and intelfb_gpio_setsda() do drive the 1 bit active to the i2c bus. But
since i have no card which is used by the intelfb driver i cannot fix
it.
