Subject[RFC Patch v3 0/3] I2C statistics as sysfs attributes
From
Add I2C statistics (transaction, bus error and NACK counts) as sysfs
attributes for a stable and unified API.

The motivation is monitoring large numbers of BMCs at scale.
Monitoring will be done using OpenBMC, which includes a Redfish
implementation (bmcweb) and runs on different SoCs.

OpenBMC has distribution-wide DBus C++ bindings, for which I2C
statistics will be added. For the Redfish schemas, the upcoming
Release 2021.4 will include I2C statistics too.

Since both OpenBMC and Redfish have/will have committed to stable
APIs for monitoring I2C statistics, we would like to learn the
kernel community's opinion on stable kernel APIs for I2C counters.

A more detailed explanation could be found in [1].

This version (v3) fixes format errors, potential unchecked memory
allocation, and fixes a build problem found by the Kernel Test Robot.

Thanks!
