hwmon: (nct6775) Add i2c driver
This driver provides an i2c I/O mechanism for the core nct6775 driver,
as might be used by a BMC. Because the Super I/O chip is shared with
the host CPU in such a scenario (and the host should ultimately be in
control of it), the i2c driver is strictly read-only to avoid
interfering with any usage by the host (aside from the bank-select
register, which seems to be replicated for the i2c interface).
