Make it very clear that this header should not be used for i2c drivers that
do not need to be compiled for pre-2.6.26 kernels.
As soon as the minimum supported kernel in the v4l-dvb repository becomes
2.6.26 or up, then this header should be removed entirely.

Originally the intention was to switch to the new style i2c API starting with
the introduction of the API in 2.6.22. However, the i2c_new_probed_device()
function has a lethal bug that wasn't fixed until 2.6.25. Or more accurately,
it was only fixed in the stable series of 2.6.25 and 2.6.26.
Given the fact that the new i2c API also changed starting with 2.6.26 (the
addition of i2c_device_id), it is easiest to switch APIs starting with
2.6.26.
This patch updates all the legacy code accordingly.

Looking at these headers as they appear in the kernel makes you
wonder why it is done that way. Refer to the v4l-dvb repository
where the full unstripped header can be found to understand the
reasoning behind this.

Update 3 more new-style i2c drivers to use standard module aliasing
instead of the old driver_name/type driver matching scheme. These
video drivers aren't used yet so converting them is trivial.

Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich.
This patch allows new-style i2c chip drivers to have alias names using
the official kernel aliasing system and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). At this
point, the old i2c driver binding scheme (driver_name/type) is still
supported.

Some devices do complicated tests whether the device can be probed or not.
Add a legacy_probe function pointer to support that.

Two new headers were added: one for I2C drivers that are only used
by V4L2 drivers converted to the new bus-based I2C API, and one that
can be used by both converted and unconverted drivers (at the expense of
some additional overhead).
To support the legacy I2C API a helper function was added to v4l2-common.c.
These headers take care of all the 'boilerplate' code that all V4L2 I2C drivers
have in common and will automatically support the bus-based I2C API introduced
in kernel 2.6.22.
