Hi Nic,

My I2C patch was actually originally developed for the m5282 and should work 
for any coldfire part with a I2C/IIC module.

The 5282, along with the 5253, the 5484 and the 54418 are the parts I have 
boards for and any code I've submitted usually has been tested on all 4.  I 
usually test new kernel releases (when I have the time and patience) on all 4 
so I'd consider the m5282 port to be as current any of the coldfire/m68knommu 
in the 3.x kernels.
