Add an I2C bus driver for virtio para-virtualization.

The controller can be emulated by the backend driver in
any device model software by following the virtio protocol.

The device specification can be found on
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202101/msg00008.html.

By following the specification, people may implement different
backend drivers to emulate different controllers according to
their needs.

Changes v12 -> v13
	- Use _BITUL() instead of BIT()
	- Rename "virtio_i2c_send_reqs" to "virtio_i2c_prepare_reqs"
	- Optimize the return value of "virtio_i2c_complete_reqs"

Changes v11 -> v12
	- Do not sent msg_buf for zero-length request.
	- Send requests to host only if all the number of transfers requested prepared successfully.
	- Remove the line #include <linux/bits.h> in virtio_i2c.h

Changes v10 -> v11
	- Remove vi->adap.class = I2C_CLASS_DEPRECATED.
	- Use #ifdef CONFIG_PM_SLEEP to replace the "__maybe_unused".
	- Remove "struct mutex lock" in "struct virtio_i2c".
	- Support zero-length request.
	- Remove unnecessary logs.
	- Remove vi->adap.timeout = HZ / 10, just use the default value.
	- Use BIT(0) to define VIRTIO_I2C_FLAGS_FAIL_NEXT.
	- Add the virtio_device index to adapter's naming mechanism.

Calling this for cases where virtio_i2c_prepare_reqs() itself has failed will
always return NULL, should we even try to call this then ?

virtqueue_get_buf() returns the next used buffer only, i.e. returned by the host
?

Mentioning again for completeness of the review, reqs[i] can never be NULL here
though req can be. And even in that case you never need to check req here.

Feel free to ignore it if you want, we can always send a fixup patch later and
discuss it further :)

Since you don't return ETIMEDOUT anymore, you can simply return j now. And so we
can work with a single failed argument and don't need both fail and failed.

Both of these need to be the uapi headers as Andy said earlier and they better
be in alphabetical order.

#include <uapi/linux/const.h>
#include <uapi/linux/types.h>

Though in your support, I do see a lot of files in uapi/linux using the standard
types.h, which looks wrong as that types.h is not a userspace ABI.

They are already since this header _is_ UAPI, what you are suggesting
is gonna not work, although it's correct for in-kernel users of UAPI
headers.

I prefer that as well.

Ahh, there is some tricky header inclusion there :)

Why ?

Because we do not have "uapi" in the path in /usr/include on the real
system where the linux-headers (or kernel-headers) package is
installed.

It's still possible that our installation hooks will remove that
"uapi" from the headers, but I think it makes things too complicated.

Ahh, right. Yeah, I completely missed that part.
