You may need to use

smbus_send_byte(hub_address, hub_channel);

or

smbus_write_byte(hub_address, hub_channel);

 

 
smbus_write_byte may need three parametres, smbus_write_byte(device ,address ,val).
for PCA9545 to enable one channel need four steps ,
 
1. outb(hub_address, base_io+02)
2. outb(hub_channel, base_io +03)
3. outb(0x04, base_io + 00)
4. test  inb(base_io+01)   
 
it is a little different from PCA9556/PCA9557. as I look at the code , use smbus_write_byte may not make pca9545 work . 
use smbus_send_byte(device,val) , I get the output:
 
No memory for this cpu
No memory
 
so I change below
outb(val, smbus_io_base + SMBHSTCMD);
then everything works fine.
so I think smbus_send_byte(device,val) ,device should be the HUB_ADDRESS , and val is the HUB_CHANNEL. is it right?
