Wellllll... I know some people who do feel strongly about this 
particular issue for some reasons. So I'd prefer giving them some hope 
and leave the door open to some i3c_master_add_i3c_dev_and_info() 
interface. In the end, it's just a matter of pre-filling the info struct 
and skipping the PID retrieval in i3c_master_getpid_locked() if already 
available, etc.
