e8813c15be dt-bindings: i2c: add support for 'i2c-arb' subnode
This gets rid of the need for a pointless 'reg' property for i2c
arbitrators.

I.e. this new and more compact style

	some-arbitrator {
		i2c-arb {
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			some-i2c-device@50 {
				reg = <0x50>;
			};
		};
	};

instead of the old

	some-arbitrator {
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <0>;

		i2c@0 {
			reg = <0>;

			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			some-i2c-device@50 {
				reg = <0x50>;
			};
		};
	};

a83bea7c11 i2c: mux: Add more warnings to i2c-arb-gpio-challenge docs
This adds some more warnings to the i2c-arb-gpio-challenge docs to
help encourage people not to use it in their designs unless they have
no choice.

b81dfaa01f i2c: mux: Add i2c-arb-gpio-challenge 'mux' driver
The i2c-arb-gpio-challenge driver implements an I2C arbitration scheme
where masters need to claim the bus with a GPIO before they can start
a transaction.  This should generally only be used when standard I2C
multimaster isn't appropriate for some reason (errata/bugs).

This driver is based on code that Simon Glass added to the i2c-s3c2410
driver in the Chrome OS kernel 3.4 tree.  The current incarnation as a
mux driver is as suggested by Grant Likely.  See
<https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1877311/> for some history.
