Pull more i2c updates from Wolfram Sang: "A small update pull request from I2C. This adds one comment to a change we did in this merge window to handle lockdep better, and pulls in a branch which should have been in 4.8 already improving DT support for I2C" * 'i2c/for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/linux: gpio: pca953x: add a comment explaining the need for a lockdep subclass i2c: core: Add support for 'i2c-bus' subnode dt-bindings: i2c: Add support for 'i2c-bus' subnode

+- i2c-bus
+ For I2C adapters that have child nodes that are a mixture of both I2C
+ devices and non-I2C devices, the 'i2c-bus' subnode can be used for
+ populating I2C devices. If the 'i2c-bus' subnode is present, only
+ subnodes of this will be considered as I2C slaves. The properties,
+ '#address-cells' and '#size-cells' must be defined under this subnode
