The first variants of Armada XP SoCs (A0 stepping) have issues related
to the i2c controller which prevent to use the offload mechanism and
lead to a kernel hang during boot.
The commit introduces a new the compatible string
marvell,mv78230-a0-i2c for the i2c controller. When this compatible
string is used the driver disables the offload mechanism and the
kernel no more hangs on these SoCs.
