We have a problem. There are lots of I2C device ID tables scattered
around the kernel which are redundant in all Device Tree and/or ACPI
only supported device drivers. After recent discussions it has become
apparent that the only thing blocking the complete removal of these
tables is the continued support of 'register an I2C device via sysfs'
functionality. As the sysfs method doesn't know anything about Device
Tree or ACPI, we can not pass any nodes in. This patch searches all
known Device Tree nodes and attempts to acquire a match from the
device name provided via sysfs. It can not fail, but if found assigns
the matching of_node to i2c_board_info prior to registering.
