In commit e45708976aea ("drm/dp-helper: Move the legacy helpers to gma500") the legacy i2c helpers were moved to the only remaining user of them, the gma500 driver. Together with that move, i2c_dp_aux_add_bus() was marked deprecated and started warning about its remaining use. It's now been a year and a half of annoying warning, and apparently nobody cares enough about gma500 to try to move it along to the more modern models. Get rid of the warning - if even the gma500 people don't care enough, then they should certainly not spam other innocent developers with a warning that might hide other, much more real issues.
