Functions i2c_do_add_adapter() and __attach_adapter() do essentially
the same thing, differing only in how the parameters are passed. Same
for i2c_do_add_adapter() and __detach_adapter(). Introduce wrappers to
normalize the parameters, so that we do not have to duplicate the
code.

The kind parameter of i2c_detect_address() always has value -1, so we
can get rid of it.
Next step is to update all i2c detect callback functions to get rid of
this now useless parameter.

The legacy probe and force module parameters are obsolete now, the
same can be achieved using the new_device sysfs interface, which is
both more flexible and cheaper (it is implemented by i2c-core rather
than replicated in every driver module.)
The legacy ignore module parameters can be dropped as well. Ignoring
can be done by instantiating a "dummy" device at the problematic
address.
This is the first step of a huge cleanup to i2c-core's i2c_detect
function, i2c.h's I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD* macros, and all drivers that made
use of them.

Low priority thread holding the i2c bus mutex could block higher
priority threads to access the bus resulting in unacceptable
latencies. Change the mutex type to rt_mutex preventing priority
inversion.

Some user-space applications may be relying on i2c adapters showing up
as class devices in sysfs. Provide compatibility links for them for
the time being. We will remove them after a long transition period.

Kay says i2c adapters shouldn't be class devices but bus devices.
Convert them that way, using a device type.

By using rwsem we can easily manage recursive calls of
i2c_scan_static_board_info() function without breaking the locking.

Add a sysfs interface to instantiate and delete I2C devices. This is
primarily a replacement of the force_* module parameters implemented
by some i2c drivers. These module parameters were implemented
internally by the I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD* macros, which don't scale well.
This can also be used when developing a driver on a self-soldered
board which doesn't yet have proper I2C device declaration at the
platform level, and presumably for various debugging situations.

The i2c-core code tends to hold the core lock for longer than it
should. Limit locking to the necessary sections for both performance
and clarity. This is also a requirement to support I2C multiplexers in
the future.

We used to maintain our own per-adapter list of i2c clients, but this
is redundant with what the driver core does, and no longer needed.
Just drop the redundant list.

Now that i2c_attach_client is no longer exported, it doesn't need to

These methods were useful in the legacy binding model but no longer in

We don't need to give adapters a parent if they don't have one. The

While it isn't the way the standard device binding model works, it is
OK for new-style drivers to implement attach_adapter. It may help
convert the renaming legacy drivers to new style drivers faster.

Setting a default timeout value on a per-algo basis doesn't make any
sense. Move the default value setting to i2c-core. Individual adapter
drivers can specify a different (non-zero) value if they wish.
Also express the timeout value in a way which results in the same
duration regarless of the value of HZ.

This patch implements uevent suppress in kobject and removes it
from struct device, based on the following ideas:
1,Uevent sending should be one attribute of kobject, so suppressing it
in kobject layer is more natural than in device layer. By this way,
we can do it for other objects embedded with kobject.
2,It may save several bytes for each instance of struct device.(On my
omap3(32bit ARM) based box, can save 8bytes per device object)
This patch also introduces dev_set|get_uevent_suppress() helpers to
set and query uevent_suppress attribute in case to help kobject
as private part of struct device in future.
[This version is against the latest driver-core patch set of Greg,please
ignore the last version.]
