-What:	i2c_driver.attach_adapter
-	i2c_driver.detach_adapter
-When:	September 2011
-Why:	These legacy callbacks should no longer be used as i2c-core offers
-	a variety of preferable alternative ways to instantiate I2C devices.
-Who:	Jean Delvare <khali@...ux-fr.org>
-
-----------------------------
-
 What:	Support for UVCIOC_CTRL_ADD in the uvcvideo driver
 When:	3.2
 Why:	The information passed to the driver by this ioctl is now queried
