Merge branch 'i2c/for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/ker…

…nel/git/wsa/linux

Pull i2c updates from Wolfram Sang:
 "Some I2C core API additions which are kind of simple but enhance error
  checking for users a lot, especially by returning errno now.

  There are wrappers to still support the old API but it will be removed
  once all users are converted"

* 'i2c/for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/linux:
  i2c: core: add device-managed version of i2c_new_dummy
  i2c: core: improve return value handling of i2c_new_device and i2c_new_dummy
