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

FYI, re:

I know that was a long time ago, but I was searching for information on
which chips supported 10-bit I2C addresses, and found a partial answer
to the question:

The following chip (link below) certainly supports a 10-bit I2C address
with the top-most 3 bits set to 0. Now, it does also respond to a 7-bit
I2C address of the same value, so this perhaps isn't quite an exact
answer to Grant's question. However, it does indicate to me that we
shouldn't determine whether to use 7- or 10-bit addresses solely from
the set bits in the I2C address; a separate property or flag bit in the
address field would be better, I think.
