Publicly expose functions for detecting devices and removing detected devices. Currently an i2c adapter only probes/detects new devices when the adapter is added or when a new i2c driver is added. This adds a new function, i2c_adapter_probe(), that allows detecting sensors at any time. Furthermore, the function i2c_adapter_remove_probed() is added to remove the devices added by i2c_adapter_probe() at any time. The intended use of these functions is for LEGO MINDSTORMS sensors. These are hot-plugable I2C devices. When a sensor is connected, i2c_adapter_probe() is called to automatically configure the sensor. When the sensor is disconnected, i2c_adapter_remove_probed() is called to remove the automatically configured device.
