Subject: [PATCH v2 25/28] docs: i2c: old-module-parameters: use monospace instead of ""

Use a monospace (literal) formatting for better readability of sysfs
attributes and the "dummy" client name. This looks much more readable in
ReST-generated output.

+Of course, it is important to instantiate the ``dummy`` device before loading
