i2c: Add an interface to lock/unlock an I2C bus segment
Some drivers need to be able to prevent access to an I2C bus segment for a specific period of time. Add an interface for them to do so without twiddling with i2c-core internals. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Acked-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
