    i2c: update i2c-dev.h warning in documentation · 91b28aeb
    Cengiz C authored
    `Documentation/i2c/dev-interface` gives examples for accessing i2c from
    userspace.
    
    There's a note that warns developers about the two `i2c-dev.h` header
    files which were shipped with the kernel and i2c-tools separately.
    
    However, following i2c-tools commits suggest that the header files are now
    identical (in functionality) and `i2c_*` helper functions are now defined
    in a separate header called `i2c/smbus.h`, which is distributed with
    i2c-tools:
    
    commit 652619121974 ("Minimize differences with kernel flavor")
    commit 93caf007f4cb ("Move SMBus helper functions to include/i2c/smbus.h")
    
    Thus, I've converted the warning paragraph into a historical note and
    updated the suggested header files.
