The I2C core now manages a debugfs dir per i2c_client. PMBus has its own
debugfs hierarchy. Link the two, so a user will be pointed to the pmbus
domain from the i2c domain.

@Guenter: I don't have any PMBus device here. Would you be interested to
test this patch? It build tests fine at least.

As mentioned separately, the symlink is not removed if a driver is unloaded.
When it is loaded again, dmesg says something like
debugfs: File 'hwmon9' in directory '3-0020' already present!
Also, the symlink ends up in, for example,
/sys/kernel/debug/i2c/i2c-3/3-0020
and looks like
hwmon9 -> ../../../pmbus/hwmon9
meaning there is an unnecessary "hwmon9" subdirectory in
/sys/kernel/debug/i2c/i2c-3/3-0020
I would prefer to have the actual debugfs files in the i2c debugfs directory
(here /sys/kernel/debug/i2c/i2c-3/3-0020) and create a symlink from
/sys/kernel/debug/pmbus/, such as
/sys/kernel/debug/pmbus/hwmon9 -> ../i2c/i2c-3/3-0020
I tried to implement it, but right now that doesn't work because the
actual debugfs files are not removed from i2c/i2c-3/3-0020 if a driver
is unloaded and I don't immediately see how to fix that.
