Jean Delvare 6629dcff19 i2c-core: Use per-adapter userspace device lists
Using a single list for all userspace devices leads to a dead lock
on multiplexed buses in some circumstances (mux chip instantiated
from userspace). This is solved by using a separate list for each
bus segment.

Grant Likely d12d42f744 i2c/of: Allow device node to be passed via i2c_board_info
The struct device_node *of_node pointer is moving out of dev->archdata
and into the struct device proper.  of_i2c.c needs to set the of_node
pointer before the device is registered.  Since the i2c subsystem
doesn't allow 2 stage allocation and registration of i2c devices, the
of_node pointer needs to be passed via the i2c_board_info structure
so that it is set prior to registration.

This patch adds of_node to struct i2c_board_info (conditional on
CONFIG_OF), sets of_node in i2c_new_device(), and modifies of_i2c.c
to use the new parameter.  The calling of dev_archdata_set_node()
from of_i2c will be removed in a subsequent patch when of_node is
removed from archdata and all users are converted over.

Jean Delvare b5527a7766 i2c: Add SMBus alert support
SMBus alert support. The SMBus alert protocol allows several SMBus
slave devices to share a single interrupt pin on the SMBus master,
while still allowing the master to know which slave triggered the
interrupt.

This is based on preliminary work by David Brownell. The key
difference between David's implementation and mine is that his was
part of i2c-core, while mine is split into a separate, standalone
module named i2c-smbus. The i2c-smbus module is meant to include
support for all SMBus extensions to the I2C protocol in the future.

The benefit of this approach is a zero cost for I2C bus segments which
do not need SMBus alert support. Where David's implementation
increased the size of struct i2c_adapter by 7% (40 bytes on i386),
mine doesn't touch it. Where David's implementation added over 150
lines of code to i2c-core (+10%), mine doesn't touch it. The only
change that touches all the users of the i2c subsystem is a new
callback in struct i2c_driver (common to both implementations.) I seem
to remember Trent was worried about the footprint of David'd
implementation, hopefully mine addresses the issue.

Jean Delvare c7b25a9e96 i2c: Drop probe, ignore and force module parameters
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.

Hans Verkuil c70366732f i2c: New macro to initialize i2c address lists on the fly
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).

Jean Delvare 4735c98f84 i2c: Add detection capability to new-style drivers
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.

Jean Delvare 3401b2fff3 i2c: Let bus drivers add SPD to their class
Let general purpose I2C/SMBus bus drivers add SPD to their class. Once
this is done, we will be able to tell the eeprom driver to only probe
for SPD EEPROMs and similar on these buses.

Note that I took a conservative approach here, adding I2C_CLASS_SPD to
many drivers that have no idea whether they can host SPD EEPROMs or not.
This is to make sure that the eeprom driver doesn't stop probing buses
where SPD EEPROMs or equivalent live.

So, bus driver maintainers and users should feel free to remove the SPD
class from drivers those buses never have SPD EEPROMs or they don't
want the eeprom driver to bind to them. Likewise, feel free to add the
SPD class to any bus driver I might have missed.

David Brownell e9f1373b64 i2c: Add i2c_new_dummy() utility
This adds a i2c_new_dummy() primitive to help work with devices
that consume multiple addresses, which include many I2C eeproms
and at least one RTC.

David Brownell 9b766b814d i2c: Stop using the redundant client list
The i2c_adapter.clients list of i2c_client nodes duplicates driver
model state.  This patch starts removing that list, letting us remove
most existing users of those i2c-core lists.

 * The core I2C code now iterates over the driver model's list instead
   of the i2c-internal one in some places where it's safe:
      - Passing a command/ioctl to each client, a mechanims
        used almost exclusively by DVB adapters;
      - Device address checking, in both i2c-core and i2c-dev.

 * Provide i2c_verify_client() to use with driver model iterators.

 * Flag the relevant i2c_adapter and i2c_client fields as deprecated,
   to help prevent new users from appearing.

For the moment the list needs to stick around, since some issues show
up when deleting devices created by legacy I2C drivers.  (They don't
follow standard driver model rules.  Removing those devices can cause
self-deadlocks.)
