In order to allow drivers to call i2c_init_adapter as a separate step,
and to allow other drivers to continue skipping the call, mark the
adapter as initialised upon i2c_init_adapter() and ignore multiple
calls.
The choice of how to introduce an "already-initialised" check into the
existing i2c_add_adapter() callers is tricky as we cannot make too many
assumptions about the state of memory, i.e. whether the struct was
cleared before being passed to i2c_add_adapter. This poses an issue if
we wanted to add a boolean flag to mark when the adapter is initialised
(as that flag may be set due to previous contents of memory). Instead,
we opt to use the userspace_client_lists as that should be empty from
initialisation through to registration - but will be reported as !empty
if it has either random junk or zeroes (with a very small chance that we
fail to register an adapter that just happens to have a prior empty list
at that location in memory).
