[PATCH] i2c: Documentation update
Update the i2c documentation: kzalloc should be used instead of kmalloc. I also fixed a couple other things nearby in writing-clients, as several past changes had never been reported there. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

exit and exit_free. For i2c+isa drivers, labels should be named
ERROR0, ERROR1 and ERROR2. Don't forget to properly set err before
jumping to error labels. By the way, labels should be left-aligned.
- Use memset to fill the client and data area with 0x00.
+ Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc.
Use i2c_set_clientdata to set the client data (as opposed to
a direct access to client->data).
Use strlcpy instead of strcpy to copy the client name.
