A previous change allowed I2C client devices to discover new IRQs upon
reprobe by clearing the IRQ in i2c_device_remove. However, if an IRQ was
assigned in i2c_new_device, that information is lost.
For example, the touchscreen and trackpad devices on a Dell Inspiron laptop
are I2C devices whose IRQs are defined by ACPI extended IRQ types. The
client device structures are initialized during an ACPI walk. After
removing the i2c_hid device, modprobe fails.
This change caches the initial IRQ value in i2c_new_device and then resets
the client device IRQ to the initial value in i2c_device_remove.

[wsa: this is an easy to backport fix for the regression. We will
refactor the code to handle irq assignments better in general.]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
