All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
way to serialize their private file operations,
typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
pushdown from VFS.
None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
lock in their file operations, meaning that there
is no lock-order inversion problem.
Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
typos.
These drivers do not seem to be under active
maintainance from my brief investigation. Apologies
to those maintainers that I have missed.

When /dev/watchdog gets opened a second time we return -EBUSY, but
we already have got a kref then, so we end up leaking our data struct.

These macros simply declare an enum, so drivers might as well declare
it themselves. This puts an end to the arbitrary limit of 8 chip types
per i2c driver.

Struct i2c_client_address_data only contains one field at this point,
which makes its usefulness questionable. Get rid of it and pass simple
address lists around instead.

At the moment, dmi_walk() lacks flexibility, users can't pass data to
