Out of curiosity, is this documented anywhere, and what is the
rationale? FWIW, this change slightly increases the binary size of the
modules.

If that's the way we are going then the patch looks good.

However I see multi-author MODULE_AUTHOR() statements left in
i2c-nomadik.c, i2c-sirf.c and i2c-viapro.c, any reason why these are
not included in your patch?
