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 drivers need to be able to prevent access to an I2C bus segment
for a specific period of time. Add an interface for them to do so
without twiddling with i2c-core internals.

For video4linux we sometimes need to probe for a single i2c address.
Normally you would do it like this:
static const unsigned short addrs[] = {
addr, I2C_CLIENT_END
};
client = i2c_new_probed_device(adapter, &info, addrs);
This is a bit awkward and I came up with this macro:
#define V4L2_I2C_ADDRS(addr, addrs...) \
((const unsigned short []){ addr, ## addrs, I2C_CLIENT_END })
This can construct a list of one or more i2c addresses on the fly. But
this is something that really belongs in i2c.h, renamed to I2C_ADDRS.
With this macro we can just do:
client = i2c_new_probed_device(adapter, &info, I2C_ADDRS(addr));
Note that this can also be used to initialize an array:
static const unsigned short addrs[] = I2C_ADDRS(0x2a, 0x2c);
Whether you want to is another matter, but it works. This functionality is
also available in the oldest supported gcc (3.2).

Surround i2c function declarations with ifdefs, so that they aren't
advertised when i2c-core isn't actually built. That way, drivers using
these functions unconditionally will result in an immediate build
failure, rather than a late linking failure which is harder to figure
out.

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.

We used to maintain our own per-adapter list of i2c clients, but this

Just drop the redundant list.

Since the first argument to I2C_BOARD_INFO() must be a string constant,
there is no need to parenthesise it, and adding parentheses results in
an invalid initialiser for char[]. gcc obviously accepts this syntax as
an extension, but sparse complains, e.g.:
drivers/net/sfc/boards.c:173:2: warning: array initialized from parenthesized string constant
Therefore, remove the parentheses.

The new i2c binding model makes the client_register and
client_unregister methods of struct i2c_adapter useless, so we can
remove them with the rest of the legacy model.

The unit in which user-space can set the bus timeout value is jiffies
for historical reasons (back when HZ was always 100.) This is however
not good because user-space doesn't know how long a jiffy lasts. The
timeout value should instead be set in a fixed time unit. Given the
original value of HZ, this unit should be 10 ms, for compatibility.

There are a number of drivers which set their i2c bus class to
I2C_CLASS_CAM_DIGITAL, however no chip driver actually checks for this
flag, so we might as well drop it now.

I2C_CLASS_ALL is almost never what bus driver authors really want.
These i2c classes are really only about which devices must be probed,
not what devices can be present. As device drivers get converted to the
new i2c device driver model, only a few device types will keep relying
on probing.
