    Add a sysfs interface to instantiate and delete I2C devices. This is
    primarily a replacement of the force_* module parameters implemented
    by some i2c drivers. These module parameters were implemented
    internally by the I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD* macros, which don't scale well.
    
    This can also be used when developing a driver on a self-soldered
    board which doesn't yet have proper I2C device declaration at the
    platform level, and presumably for various debugging situations.
