i2c: Add generic I2C multiplexer using GPIO API
Add an i2c mux driver providing access to i2c bus segments using a
hardware MUX sitting on a master bus and controlled through gpio pins.
E.G. something like:
---------- ---------- Bus segment 1 - - - - -
| | SCL/SDA | |-------------- | |
| |------------| |
| | | | Bus segment 2 | |
| Linux | GPIO 1..N | MUX |--------------- Devices
| |------------| | | |
| | | | Bus segment M
| | | |---------------| |
---------- ---------- - - - - -
SCL/SDA of the master I2C bus is multiplexed to bus segment 1..M
according to the settings of the GPIO pins 1..N.
