Add a mechanism to let new-style i2c drivers optionally autodetect
devices they would support on selected buses and ask i2c-core to
instantiate them. This is a replacement for legacy i2c drivers, much
cleaner.

Where drivers had to implement both a legacy i2c_driver and a
new-style i2c_driver so far, this mechanism makes it possible to get
rid of the legacy i2c_driver and implement both enumerated and
detected device support with just one (new-style) i2c_driver.

Here is a quick conversion guide for these drivers, step by step:

* Delete the legacy driver definition, registration and removal.
  Delete the attach_adapter and detach_client methods of the legacy
  driver.

* Change the prototype of the legacy detect function from
    static int foo_detect(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, int address, int kind);
  to
    static int foo_detect(struct i2c_client *client, int kind,
       struct i2c_board_info *info);

* Set the new-style driver detect callback to this new function, and
  set its address_data to &addr_data (addr_data is generally provided
  by I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD.)

* Add the appropriate class to the new-style driver. This is
  typically the class the legacy attach_adapter method was checking
  for. Class checking is now mandatory (done by i2c-core.) See
  <linux/i2c.h> for the list of available classes.

* Remove the i2c_client allocation and freeing from the detect
  function. A pre-allocated client is now handed to you by i2c-core,
  and is freed automatically.

* Make the detect function fill the type field of the i2c_board_info
  structure it was passed as a parameter, and return 0, on success. If
  the detection fails, return -ENODEV.

+Device Detection (Standard driver model)
+----------------------------------------
+
+Sometimes you do not know in advance which I2C devices are connected to
+a given I2C bus.  This is for example the case of hardware monitoring
+devices on a PC's SMBus.  In that case, you may want to let your driver
+detect supported devices automatically.  This is how the legacy model
+was working, and is now available as an extension to the standard
+driver model (so that we can finally get rid of the legacy model.)
+
+You simply have to define a detect callback which will attempt to
+identify supported devices (returning 0 for supported ones and -ENODEV
+for unsupported ones), a list of addresses to probe, and a device type
+(or class) so that only I2C buses which may have that type of device
+connected (and not otherwise enumerated) will be probed.  The i2c
+core will then call you back as needed and will instantiate a device
+for you for every successful detection.
+
+Note that this mechanism is purely optional and not suitable for all
+devices.  You need some reliable way to identify the supported devices
+(typically using device-specific, dedicated identification registers),
+otherwise misdetections are likely to occur and things can get wrong
+quickly.
