[PATCH v5 0/9] i2c: atr: allow usage of nested ATRs

For upcoming GMSL drivers, we need to be able to use nested ATRs.
The deserializer changes the address of the serializers, and can only
do that for the serializers, while the serializers have proper address
translation hardware, and can translate the address of its children.

To achieve this, add a static flag and a passthrough flag.
The static flag prevents usage of dynamic remapping by disallowing
creation of new mappings outside of the attach_addr() function.
The passthrough flag prevents messages coming from non-direct children
(which don't have a local mapping) to be treated as erroneous.

This series also contains various fixes to the logic observed during
development.

V5:
* pick up Reviewed-by tags
* expand the I2C_ATR_F_STATIC description
* place i2c_atr_create_mapping_by_addr() before
i2c_atr_replace_mapping_by_addr()

V4:
* rebase on latest merged changes, and latest submitted fixes

V3:
* remove i2c_atr_new_flags(), add flags parameter to i2c_atr_new() in
a new patch
* remove "i2c: atr: unlock mutex after c2a access" patch as it will
be moved into the base series
* remove alias_pairs variable used only once
* remove err_del_c2a label used only once
* add lockdep_assert_held to i2c_atr_create_mapping_by_addr()
* I2C_ATR_STATIC -> I2C_ATR_F_STATIC
* I2C_ATR_PASSTHROUGH -> I2C_ATR_F_PASSTHROUGH
* add passthrough check to i2c_atr_smbus_xfer()

V2:
* rename and split up i2c_atr_find_mapping_by_addr() to allow for
usage of parts of its logic where applicable
