From: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@xxxxxxxx>
Currently there are a few drivers that still set the .owner
in the i2c_driver structure - all of which are reported by
coccinelle (scripts/coccinelle/api/platform_no_drv_owner.cocci)
and there are no cases that set the .onwer and do not call any
of the functions that set the .owner field anyway in any of the
drivers (checked by a modified coccinelle script based on the
above) so it seems that the examples are no longer valid and
.owner = THIS_MODULE, can be removed here.
While at it an obvious typo (new new) was also fixed.
