mainlining shenanigans
`Documentation/i2c/dev-interface` gives examples for accessing i2c from userspace. There's a note that warns developers about the two `i2c-dev.h` header files which were shipped with the kernel and i2c-tools separately. However, following i2c-tools commits suggest that the header files are now identical (in functionality) and `i2c_*` helper functions are now defined in a separate header called `i2c/smbus.h`, which is distributed with i2c-tools: commit 652619121974 ("Minimize differences with kernel flavor") commit 93caf007f4cb ("Move SMBus helper functions to include/i2c/smbus.h") Thus, I've converted the warning paragraph into a historical note and updated the suggested header files.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
