Add an I2C bus driver for virtio para-virtualization.

The controller can be emulated by the backend driver in
any device model software by following the virtio protocol.

The device specification can be found on
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202101/msg00008.html.

By following the specification, people may implement different
backend drivers to emulate different controllers according to
their needs.

kmemdup() ?
Do you mean using "kzalloc" in the if condition and "kmemdup" in the else condition ?
Then we have to check the NULL twice which is also not good.

One blank line is enough.
Will fix it. Thank you.

Redundant.
Good catch !
