Revert "Merge branch 'mctp-i2c-driver'"

This reverts commit 71812af7234f30362b43ccff33f93890ae4c0655, reversing
changes made to cc0be1ad686fb29a4d127948486f40b17fb34b50.

Wolfram Sang says:

Please revert. Besides the driver in net, it modifies the I2C core
code. This has not been acked by the I2C maintainer (in this case me).
So, please don't pull this in via the net tree. The question raised here
(extending SMBus calls to 255 byte) is complicated because we need ABI
backwards compatibility.

i2c: dev: Handle 255 byte blocks for i2c ioctl

I2C_SMBUS is limited to 32 bytes due to compatibility with the
32 byte i2c_smbus_data.block

I2C_RDWR allows larger transfers if sufficient sized buffers are passed.

i2c: core: Allow 255 byte transfers for SMBus 3.x

SMBus 3.0 increased the maximum block transfer size from 32 bytes to
255 bytes. We increase the size of struct i2c_smbus_data's block[]
member.

i2c_smbus_xfer() and i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() now support 255 byte
block operations, other block functions remain limited to 32 bytes for
compatibility with existing callers.

We allow adapters to indicate support for the larger size with
I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_V3_BLOCK. Most emulated drivers should be able to use 255
byte blocks by replacing I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX with I2C_SMBUS_V3_BLOCK_MAX
though some will have hardware limitations that need testing.

i2c: uapi: add macro to describe support for all SMBus transfers

Some I2C bus master drivers which support I2C_M_RECV_LEN do not set
the functionality bits of the now supported SMBus transfers. Add a
convenience macro to make this very simple.

i2c: refactor documentation of struct i2c_msg

The information about 'i2c_msg' was spread between kdoc and comments.
Move all the explanations to kdoc and duplicate only the requirements
for the flags in the comments. Also, add some redundancy and fix some
typos while here.

i2c: add a message flag for DMA safe buffers

I2C has no requirement that the buffer of a message needs to be DMA
safe. In case it is, it can now be flagged, so drivers wishing to
do DMA can use the buffer directly.

License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.

Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.

GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:

NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.

Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)

SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

i2c: smbus: add SMBus Host Notify support

SMBus Host Notify allows a slave device to act as a master on a bus to
notify the host of an interrupt. On Intel chipsets, the functionality
is directly implemented in the firmware. We just need to export a
function to call .alert() on the proper device driver.

i2c_handle_smbus_host_notify() behaves like i2c_handle_smbus_alert().
When called, it schedules a task that will be able to sleep to go through
the list of devices attached to the adapter.

The current implementation allows one Host Notification to be scheduled
while an other is running.

i2c: guarantee that I2C_M_RD will be 0x0001 forever

There is code out there in user space and kernel space which relies on
I2C_M_RD being bit 0 to simplify their bit operations. Add a comment to
make sure this will never break. Do proper sorting of the defines while
we are here.
