d2653e9273 i2c: Add support for device alias names
Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich.

This patch allows new-style i2c chip drivers to have alias names using
the official kernel aliasing system and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). At this
point, the old i2c driver binding scheme (driver_name/type) is still
supported.

afe1ab4d57 correct name for rtc-m41t80
The new rtc-m41t80 driver name doesn't match its module name, which
prevents it from properly hotplugging.  Since it's new, no platforms yet
depend on that name ...  so this patch fixes the driver name to match its
module name, rather than going the other way around with a MODULE_ALIAS().

NOTE: This sort of bug is a new thing to watch out for with new-style I2C
drivers; previously I2C couldn't hotplug.

caaff562e0 rtc: add rtc-m41t80 driver
This is a new-style i2c driver for ST M41T80 series RTC chip, derived from
works by Alexander Bigga <ab@mycable.de> who wrote the original
rtc-m41txx.c based on drivers/i2c/chips/m41t00.c driver.

This driver supports M41T8[0-4] and M41ST8[457].  The old m41t00 driver
supports M41T00, M41T81 and M41T85(M41ST85).  While the M41T00 chip is now
supported by rtc-ds1307 driver, this driver does not include support for
the chip.
