[PATCH v6 00/24] Associate ddc adapters with connectors

It is difficult for a user to know which of the i2c adapters is for which
drm connector. This series addresses this problem.

The idea is to have a symbolic link in connector's sysfs directory, e.g.:

ls -l /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/ddc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jun 24 10:42 /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/ddc \
	-> ../../../../soc/13880000.i2c/i2c-2

The user then knows that their card0-HDMI-A-1 uses i2c-2 and can e.g. run
ddcutil:

ddcutil -b 2 getvcp 0x10
VCP code 0x10 (Brightness): current value =    90, max value =   100

The first patch in the series adds struct i2c_adapter pointer to struct
drm_connector. If the field is used by a particular driver, then an
appropriate symbolic link is created by the generic code, which is also added
by this patch.

Patch 2 adds a new variant of drm_connector_init(), see the changelog
below.

Patches 3..24 are examples of how to convert a driver to this new scheme.

v1..v2:

- used fixed name "ddc" for the symbolic link in order to make it easy for
userspace to find the i2c adapter

v2..v3:

- converted as many drivers as possible.

v3..v4:

- added Reviewed-by for patch 01/23
- moved "ddc" field assignment to before drm_connector_init() is called
in msm, vc4, sti, mgag200, ast, amdgpu, radeon
- simplified the code in amdgpu and radeon at the expense of some lines
exceeding 80 characters as per Alex Deucher's suggestion
- added i915

v4..v5:

- changed "include <linux/i2c.h>" to "struct i2c_adapter;"
in drm_connector.h, consequently, added "include <linux/i2c.h>"
in drm_sysfs.c.
- added "drm_connector_init_with_ddc()" variant to ensure that the ddc
field of drm_connector is preserved accross its invocation
- accordingly changed invocations of drm_connector_init() in the
touched drivers to use the new variant

v5..v6:

- improved subject line of patch 1
- added kernel-doc for drm_connector_init_with_ddc()
- improved kernel-doc for the ddc field of struct drm_connector
- added Reviewed-by in patches 17 and 18
- added Acked-by in patch 2
- made the ownership of ddc i2c_adapter explicit in all patches,
this made the affected patches much simpler

@Benjamin
@Shawn

There were your Acked-by or Reviewed-by for some patches in v4, but now
that the patches use the newly added function I'm not sure I can still
include those tags without you actually confirming. Can I? Or can you
please re-review? 

TODO: nouveau, gma500, omapdrm, panel-simple - if applicable.
Other drivers are either already converted or don't mention neither
"ddc" nor "i2c_adapter".
