I have BeagleBoard Rev C (omap3530 arm board) and it has GPIOs but at
the moment I do not possess a spare dTPM module. I'll ask my employer
for one. It's quite old (2009), which is a good thing because of range
of support I would presume...

If I get the spare dTPM I can do I2C/SPI through GPIOs as long as I find
a way to inject stuff to DT. Hmm.. that said I've never done this
before. I guess you can ask I2C/SPI driver somehow to use GPIOs?
