[Intel-gfx] [RFT 0/8] i2c: refactor core and break out blocks

[Wolfram Sang]

This series was originally posted as [1] to the i2c list. There, Jani suggested
to resend the series here, so it could benefit from the CI tests seeing if I2C
still works after this huge restructuring (it did for my local tests). Thank
you very much, this is very helpful. So, I resend here as RFT. As a reference,
here is the old cover-letter:

Yes, I wanted to do this for years now... The I2C core became a huge monolithic
blob getting harder and harder to maintain. This series breaks out some
functional parts into seperate files. This makes the code easier to handle
because of the smaller chunks. It reduces ifdeffery because we can now handle
compilation at the Makefile level. And it helps to spread responsibility, e.g.
the ACPI maintainers do now have a dedicated file listed in MAINTAINERS.

This series was tested with a Renesas Lager board (R-Car H2 SoC). It booted
normally and all device drivers for I2C clients seem to work normally. I wired
two I2C busses together and used i2c-slave-eeprom to let one I2C IP core read
out data from the other. That all worked fine. Buildbot is also happy, it found
two issues of the first (non public) iteration. Thanks!

I did not test ACPI and hope for some assistance here :) I'd also be happy if
people could check the includes of the newly created files, there might be
missing some.

As a result, the main i2c-core file goes down from ~3600 lines to ~2000 lines.
I think this is pretty helpful. I plan to apply this for v4.13 to not block
other core changes. Let's see if we are there yet and the series is ready.
Looking forward to comments.
