i2c-stub: Chip address as a module parameter

i2c-stub: Chip address as a module parameter

Add a mandatory chip_addr parameter to i2c-stub. This parameter
defines to which chip address the driver will respond, instead of
reponding to all addresses as before. The idea is to prevent the
users from loading i2c-stub at random and being then confused by
the results of sensors-detect or other user-space tools.

@ -6,9 +6,12 @@ This module is a very simple fake I2C/SMBus driver. It implements four
types of SMBus commands: write quick, (r/w) byte, (r/w) byte data, and
(r/w) word data.
You need to provide a chip address as a module parameter when loading
this driver, which will then only react to SMBus commands to this address.
No hardware is needed nor associated with this module. It will accept write
quick commands to all addresses; it will respond to the other commands (also
to all addresses) by reading from or writing to an array in memory. It will
quick commands to one address; it will respond to the other commands (also
to one address) by reading from or writing to an array in memory. It will
also spam the kernel logs for every command it handles.
A pointer register with auto-increment is implemented for all byte

3. load the target sensors chip driver module
4. observe its behavior in the kernel log
PARAMETERS:
int chip_addr:
The SMBus address to emulate a chip at.
CAVEATS:
There are independent arrays for byte/data and word/data commands. Depending

chips) this module will not work well - although it could be extended to
support that pretty easily.
Only one chip address is supported - although this module could be
extended to support more.
If you spam it hard enough, printk can be lossy. This module really wants
something like relayfs.
