Subject: [PATCH 1/7] i2c: mux: add the ability to share mux-address with
 child nodes

Allow the mux to have the same address as a child device. This is useful
when the mux can only use an i2c-address that is used by a child device
because no other addresses are free to use. eg. the mux can only use
address 0x18 which is used by amc6821 connected to the mux.
