Where are those defined? Such functions don't seem to exist
in in a library on any of my Linux distros.
I get the impression that part of the text is very old. Last
updated mid-2005, and maybe that part dates from some old 2.4
stuff that's no longer relevant.
Also, a clear omission is the SMBus "block write-block read
process call" primitive...
