The I2C_M_RECV_LEN calling convention for i2c_mesg.flags involves
playing games with reported buffer lengths. (They start out less
than their actual size, and the length is then modified to reflect
how many bytes were delivered ... which one hopes is less than the
presumed actual size.) Refuse to play such error prone games across
the boundary between userspace and kernel.

Let the drivers specify how many bytes they want to read with
i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(). So far, the block count was
hard-coded to I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which did not make much sense.
Many driver authors complained about this before, and I believe it's
about time to fix it. Right now, authors have to do technically stupid
things, such as individual byte reads or full-fledged I2C messaging,
to work around the problem. We do not want to encourage that.
I even found that some bus drivers (e.g. i2c-amd8111) already
implemented I2C block read the "right" way, that is, they didn't
follow the old, broken standard. The fact that it was never noticed
before just shows how little i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() was used,
which isn't that surprising given how broken its prototype was so far.
There are some obvious compatiblity considerations:
* This changes the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype. Users
outside the kernel tree will notice at compilation time, and will
have to update their code.
* User-space has access to i2c_smbus_xfer() directly using i2c-dev, so
the changed expectations would affect tools such as i2cdump. In order
to preserve binary compatibility, we give I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA
a new numeric value, and define I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_BROKEN with the
old numeric value. When i2c-dev receives a transaction with the
old value, it can convert it to the new format on the fly.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

I couldn't test this one beyond compilation, as it applies on top of
another patch in Greg's tree [1] which breaks all my systems when I
apply it (my udev isn't recent enough.) Anyone with bleeding edge udev
is welcome to test and report.

i2c-dev: Use a list for data storage
Use a list instead of a static array for storing the i2c-dev data.
Given that most systems have less than 10 i2c busses, most of the
space was wasted, so this saves around 1 kB of memory (2 kB on 64-bit
archs.)
The drawback is that lookup was in O(1) and is now in O(N), but given
that the values of N are always small, I don't think this is a problem.

i2c-dev: Cleanups
* We no more need to include platform_device.h.
* Delete the to_i2c_dev macro, which is no more used (and no more valid
either.)
* Drop i2c_dev.minor. Now that the minor number always matches the i2c
adapter number, this field is redundant with i2c_dev.adap->nr.
* Delete i2c_dev_get_by_adapter() which is now redundant with
i2c_dev_get_by_minor() for the same reason.
* Drop the local variable dev in i2cdev_attach_adapter(), we can
easily do without it.

Just about every i2c chip driver sets the I2C_DF_NOTIFY flag, so we
can simply make it the default and drop the flag. If any driver really
doesn't want to be notified when i2c adapters are added, that driver
can simply omit to set .attach_adapter. This approach is also more
robust as it prevents accidental NULL pointer dereferences.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
