Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Add Mule I2C multiplexer support

Mule is an mcu that emulates a set of i2c devices which are reacheable
through an i2c-mux.

The emulated devices share a single i2c address with the mux itself where
the requested register is what determines which logic is executed (mux or
device):

1- The devices on the mux can be selected (mux function) by writing the
appropriate device number to an i2c config register (0xff) that is not
used by any device logic.

2- Any access to a register other than the config register will be
handled by the previously selected device.

      +-------------------------------------------------------+

The current i2c-mux implementation does not allow the mux to share the i2c
address of a child device. As a workaround, when creating each i2c child
adapter we do not assign the parent adapter to avoid the address-match with
the mux.

This patch-series adds support for this multiplexer. Mule is integrated
as part of rk3399-puma, px30-ringneck, rk3588-tiger and rk3588-jaguar
boards.
