[PATCH] of_i2c: I2C child node 10-bit client addressing

I guess the I2C spec does not restricts.(A device to have an address that fits in the first 7 bits, but still requires 10 bit address transactions)

But I don't think their will be any I2C slave doing this. 

Why a 7 bit slave want to have extra byte for every transaction?

Note: I am on vacation with limited e-mail access. I will be back on Nov 26.

Thanks,
-Bharat
