Because I want to clarify I2C_M_RECV len usage, this series updates the
documentation and some of its users. Patch 1 refactors the whole
documentation of 'i2c_msg', so all usage of I2C_M_* flags and their
conditions hopefully become clearer. Patch 2+3 remove some obvious
boilerplate in the UAPI headers while here. Patch 4 is a driver fix I
found while working on this series. Patch 5 introduces a new convenience
macro to enable SMBus transfers which need I2C_M_RECV_LEN. Then, some
drivers use the new macro, sometimes to remove boilerplate, sometimes
because these SMBus transfers have been forgotten before.

This series is the first part of a larger work to extend I2C_M_RECV_LEN
to allow larger transfer sizes (as specified in the SMBus 3.0 standard)
and to enable this on Renesas R-Car hardware.

Looking forward to comments and/or reviews; the driver patches are only
build-tested.

Happy hacking,

   Wolfram

Applied to for-next, thanks!
