I don't understand -- are you saying that there is additional hardware
somewhere in the machine responding to I2C transactions on the monitor's
DDC bus?

And if so, how was this extra transaction breaking things? The GMBUS
reset patch should only have an effect when there are failed
transactions, not successful ones, and then it should only cause future
transactions to fail, not succeed. Besides, the 0xA0 transaction looks
like the first one on the bus.
