Subject: [PATCHv6 02/11] i2c: Add the ability to match device to compatible string without an of_node

From: Lee Jones <lee.jones@...aro.org>

A great deal of I2C devices are currently matched via DT node name, and
as such the compatible naming convention of '<vendor>,<device>' has gone
somewhat awry - some nodes don't supply one, some supply an arbitrary
string and others the correct device name with an arbitrary vendor prefix.

In an effort to correct this problem we have to supply a mechanism to
match a device by compatible string AND by simple device name.  This
function strips off the '<vendor>,' part of a supplied compatible string
and attempts to match without it.

The plan is to remove this function once all of the compatible strings
for each device have been brought into line.
