Not really. PMBUS_HAVE_ flags are intended to indicate sensor register
support, not to indicate compliance problems. What you'd be looking for
would be the flags in struct pmbus_platform_data. However, those are only
intended to be used if registers/commands can not be auto-detected or if
doing so causes problems. See include/linux/pmbus.h for details.
Unless there is reason to believe that chips are misbehaving when trying
to read from or to set PMBUS_SMBALERT_MASK, we should stick with auto-
detection. After all, that is what pmbus_check_{status,byte,word}_register()
functions are for.
