The first step toward turning viafb into a multifunction driver. This
patch creates a new via-core.c file which serves as the main PCI driver;
everything else comes below that. Some work has been done to rationalize
the i2c drivers in this new scheme.

...otherwise it seems we run into conflicts with shadowy other users which
don't expect to see i2c taking control of ports it never used to do
anything with.

This patch changes the way how the various I2C busses are used internally
inside the viafb driver: Previosuly, only a single i2c_adapter was created,
even though two different hardware I2C busses are accessed: A structure member
in a global variable was modified to indicate the bus to be used.
Now, all existing hardware busses are registered with the i2c core, and the
viafb_i2c_{read,write}byte[s]() function take the adapter number as function
call parameter, rather than referring to the global structure member.
