I've pulled it, but please don't do this again.

The "New driver" rule has become pretty much historical, simply
because releases have been regular enough that it doesn't much make
much sense, and we just have't had the kinds of "basic support"
drivers that make sense pushing out as early as possible just to get
people able to use a machine at all. So in practice, the "new driver"
rule has become a "new ID or quirk" rule.

The nVidia i2c support doesn't sound so special that it couldn't have
waited until the merge window.
