<title>i2c: Remove all i2c_set_clientdata(client, NULL) in drivers</title>

I2C drivers can use the clientdata-pointer to point to private data. As I2C
devices are not really unregistered, but merely detached from their driver, it
used to be the drivers obligation to clear this pointer during remove() or a
failed probe(). As a couple of drivers forgot to do this, it was agreed that it
was cleaner if the i2c-core does this clearance when appropriate, as there is
no guarantee for the lifetime of the clientdata-pointer after remove() anyhow.
This feature was added to the core with commit
e4a7b9b04de15f6b63da5ccdd373ffa3057a3681 to fix the faulty drivers.

As there is no need anymore to clear the clientdata-pointer, remove all current
occurrences in the drivers to simplify the code and prevent confusion.

Grant patches added an of mach table to struct device_driver. However,
while he changed the macio device code to use that, he left the match
table pointer in struct macio_driver and didn't update drivers to use
the "new" one, thus breaking the probing.

This completes the change by moving all drivers to setup the "new"
one, removing all traces of the old one, and while at it (since it
changes the exact same locations), I also remove two other duplicates
from struct driver which are the name and owner fields.

Merging in current state of Linus' tree to deal with merge conflicts and
build failures in vio.c after merge.

Conflicts:
	drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-cpm.c
	drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c
	drivers/net/gianfar.c

Also fixed up one line in arch/powerpc/kernel/vio.c to use the
correct node pointer.

The of_node pointer is now stored directly in struct device, so
of_match_device() should work with any device, not just struct of_device.

This patch changes the interface to of_match_device() to accept a
struct device instead of struct of_device.

.name, .match_table and .owner are duplicated in both of_platform_driver
and device_driver.  This patch is a removes the extra copies from struct
of_platform_driver and converts all users to the device_driver members.

This patch is a pretty mechanical change.  The usage model doesn't change
and if any drivers have been missed, or if anything has been fixed up
incorrectly, then it will fail with a compile time error, and the fixup
will be trivial.  This patch looks big and scary because it touches so
many files, but it should be pretty safe.

OF-style matching can be available to any device, on any type of bus.
This patch allows any driver to provide an OF match table when CONFIG_OF
is enabled so that drivers can be bound against devices described in
the device tree.

By moving dma_mask into pdev_archdata, and adding archdata to
struct of_device, it makes it possible to substitute of_device
with struct platform_device, which is a stepping stone to
removing the of_platform bus entirely.
