struct i2c_client is way too large to be put on the kernel stack, and depending
on the kernel configuration, this can exceed the compile-time warning limit:

drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c:1420:12: error: stack frame size (1040) exceeds limit (1024) in 'i2c_do_add_adapter' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
 1420 | static int i2c_do_add_adapter(struct i2c_driver *driver,
      |            ^

The current version is the result of a cleanup patch that does not appear
to be a requirement for anything else, so address the problem through a
simple revert.
