OK, thanks for trying!

Yes, pretty much what I had in mind. One issue, though:

This should fail because bus drivers need those enums for their slave
backend. Try building i2c-sh_mobile which builds with an x86 toolchain
as well.

* Either we leave this included, so bus drivers don't need any ifdeffery

or

* we mandate that bus drivers also use the ifedeffery. Then, we could
  also mask out the (un)reg_slave callbacks in struct i2c_adapter

What do you think?
