[PATCH] i2c: Rework client usage count, 3 of 3
Do not limit the usage count of i2c clients to 1. In other words,
change the client usage count behavior from the old I2C_CLIENT_ALLOW_USE
to the old I2C_CLIENT_ALLOW_MULTIPLE_USE. The rationale is that no
driver actually needs the limiting behavior, and the unlimiting
behavior is slightly easier to implement.
Update the documentation to reflect this change.
