I see in downstream that this flag is used on the SM8650 qupv3_se6_i2c,
and that on the SM8650-HDK this i2c is shared between the aDSP battmgr and
the linux to access the HDMI controller.

Is this is the target use-case ?

We have some issues on this platform that crashes the system when Linux
does some I2C transfers while battmgr does some access at the same time,
the problem is that on the Linux side the i2c uses the SE DMA and not GPI
because fifo_disable=0 so by default this bypasses GPI.

A temporary fix has been merged:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240605-topic-sm8650-upstream-hdk-iommu-fix-v1-1-9fd7233725fa@linaro.org/
but it's clearly not a real solution

What would be the solution to use the shared i2c with on one side battmgr
using GPI and the kernel using SE DMA ?

In this case, shouldn't we force using GPI on linux with:
