The reason sounds sane to me, but while looking through the code, I have seen a
few other problems, too.

To my understanding, we should use port for dev_priv->gmbus[], not the pin
mapping (which is only used for gmbus_ports[]).
Don't forget to add the +1 for pin -> port mapping to the error case.

Also, intel_gmbus_get_adapter is already accepting a port value (I made sure to
look at the calls in other files too), so don't map the port back to a pin.

Keep the same in mind for the intel_teardown_gmbus "destructor".

The current code adds the gmbus algorithm (gmbus_xfer) to gmbus port 0, which is
known as "disabled" and shouldn't be used (previously has_gpio was set to false
for those ports to not do any transfer on those ports.)

I may be wrong, could you review this and maybe add it to your patch?
