At some point someone will have to document how trivial i2c device mappings
work in detail. Every other time another trivial i2c device is added
to this file, the same argument starts all over again.

An attempt to document the trivial i2c device mappings implementation
was rejected with the argument that it would be implementation (Linux)
specific. The proposed patch [1] may however help understanding how
it works.

Hope that helps,
Guenter
