Hi Linus,

I submitted a patch reusing a routine already present in i2c.h that
allows to test if an i2c adapter's parent is also an i2c adapter,
which is the case for adapters behind a multiplexer.

Also Cc'ed linux-i2c and Wolfram Sang to let him take a look if the
API is used correctly.

Best regards,
