    i2c: mark HostNotify target address as used · bd9f5348
    Wolfram Sang authored
    I2C core handles the local target for receiving HostNotify alerts. There
    is no separate driver bound to that address. That means userspace can
    access it if desired, leading to further complications if controllers
    are not capable of reading their own local target. Bind the local target
    to the dummy driver so it will be marked as "handled by the kernel" if
    the HostNotify feature is used. That protects aginst userspace access
    and prevents other drivers binding to it.
