In other word, It can make it workable when new SoCs arrives, even
though depends on PLAT_SAMSUNG.

If new chip has improved i2C IP then define new I2C drivers and modify
it as 'depends on PLAT_SAMUSNG if !NEW_IP_I2C'
and use another i2c drivers. of course it's depends on PLAT_SAMSUNG or
PLAT_S5P if NEW_IP_I2C.
