Merge tag 'tegra-for-4.8-i2c' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tegra/linux into i2c/for-next
[wsa: fell through the cracks, applied to 4.9 now] Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa@the-dreams.de> i2c: 'i2c-bus' node support for v4.8-rc1 This includes the device tree binding and I2C core changes to support the i2c-bus subnode that I2C masters can use to describe their slaves in a separate namespace and therefore avoid clashing with potentially other subnodes.

+- i2c-bus
+ For I2C adapters that have child nodes that are a mixture of both I2C
+ devices and non-I2C devices, the 'i2c-bus' subnode can be used for
+ populating I2C devices. If the 'i2c-bus' subnode is present, only
+ subnodes of this will be considered as I2C slaves. The properties,
+ '#address-cells' and '#size-cells' must be defined under this subnode
