does, but it only triggers a transaction on even register addresses,
relying on the target chip to increment its internal register pointer
between the high and low byte of the word. EEPROMs behave that way, so
this mode makes it possible to dump an EEPROM contents faster. I2C Block
Read is still faster but it isn't available on all busses, while SMBus
Read Word is very popular. This mode also makes it possible to test
SMBus Read Word transactions on a given adapter using common EEPROMs.
