[PATCH 7/7] OF/ACPI/I2C: Add generic match function for the aforementioned systems

[Lee Jones]

Currently this is a helper function for the I2C subsystem to aid the
matching of non-standard compatible strings and devices which use DT
and/or ACPI, but do not supply any nodes (see: [1] Method 4).  However,
it has been made more generic as it can be used to only make one call
for drivers which support any mixture of OF, ACPI and/or I2C matching.

The initial aim is for of_match_device() to be replaced by this call
in all I2C device drivers.
