[PATCHv7 08/11] i2c: match vendorless strings on the internal string length

[Kieran Bingham]

If a user provides a shortened string to match a device to the sysfs i2c
interface it will match on the first string that contains that string
prefix.

for example:
  echo a 0x68 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-2/new_device
will match as3711, as3722, and ak8975 incorrectly.

Correct this by using sysfs_streq to match the string exactly
