[i2c] [patch 2.6.23-rc9] remove i2c_algorithm.algo_control(); cleanup

[David Brownell]

This removes:

 - An effectively unused hook:  i2c_algorithm.algo_control.

 - The i2c_control() call, used only by i2c-dev to call that
   unused hook or set two barely supported adapter params.

   (That param setting moves into i2c-dev.c ... still iffy
   due to lack of locking, but no other changes.)

As shown by diffstat, this is a net code shrink.  It also reduces the
complexity of the I2C adapter and /dev interfaces.

The main potential issue with this is fixing a bug in how i2c-dev
implements unsupported ioctl requests:  it finally reports the error
to userspace.  If needed, the bug could be perpetuated for a while.
