commit f2d4a5834638bbc967371b9168c0b481519f7c5e upstream.

The process of adding an I2C adapter can invoke I2C accesses on that new
adapter (see i2c_detect()).

Ensure we have set the adapter's driver data to avoid null pointer
dereferences in the xfer functions during the adapter add.

This has been noted in the past and the same fix proposed but not
completed. See:
