Quick questions about this though.

priv is allocated with kzalloc and not devm_kzalloc and is then manually 
kfree'd either as part of the error path or in i2c_del_mux_adapters. Is 
there a reason for this? Shouldn't we migrate this to devm allocation as 
well?

Similarly, I was wondering if we couldn't add a devm_add_action_or_reset 
for i2c_del_mux_adapters in i2c_add_mux_adapter? Is there something that 
prevents us from doing this?

Cheers,
Quentin
