Also, I think all of these functions only work on non-x86 devices
right now so they're probably not really helpful to you (I'd be
surprised if they even compile and link for your board). The I2C API
is unfortunately one of those areas where x86 and non-x86 coreboot
still lead very separate side-by-side lives right now. For x86 you
probably need the i2c_dev_xxx() functions, which should in theory work

Skylake and Apollolake do support the I2C API and associated convenience functions. (finally!) The i2c driver used is common for intel chipsets since haswell(core) and baytrail(atom), it just needs a bit of glue layer to map bus number to a base address.

I added the i2c_dev_* variants around the same time in order to support drivers where the bus+address comes from devicetree, but the functions that take a bus+address will work too.

similar but I have no experience with them. You might also need to use
the smbus_xxx() functions instead (SMBUS is some
kinda-the-same-but-not-quite thing related to I2C on x86 that I never
bothered to fully understand).

I agree this is likely what is needed for the ASROCK IMB-A180 as it looks like there is an smbus driver in the southbridge. Look for i2c_smbus_send_byte() in include/device/smbus.h which is implemented in southbridge/amd/agesa/hudson/smbus.c
