Subject: [PATCH 11/12] crypto: atmel - move i2c client selection to core driver

From: Lothar Rubusch <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 17 May 2026 18:06:38 +0000

Move the I2C client selection/allocation logic from the ECC-specific driver
into the shared Atmel I2C core.

This consolidates hardware client selection in a single place, allowing all
Atmel crypto drivers to reuse the same balancing logic for selecting the
least-loaded I2C client based on the current transformation count.

No functional change is intended.
