It's about time to make it clear that i2c_adapter.id is deprecated.
Hopefully this will remind the last user to move over to a different
strategy.

 ----------------------------
+
+What:  i2c_adapter.id
+When:  June 2011
+Why:   This field is deprecated. I2C device drivers shouldn't change their
+       behavior based on the underlying I2C adapter. Instead, the I2C
+       adapter driver should instantiate the I2C devices and provide the
+       needed platform-specific information.
