I think it can be done better.

FYI, this patch came about because I keep complaining about submitters
sending me patches I really shouldn't have to care about.

Here is the most recent offending command output:

  linux-...@vger.kernel.org (open list:I2C SUBSYSTEM)
  linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)

Anyone south of Wolfram and north of the I2C ML is unlikely to care.

Please find a way to make this better.  For the sake of our sanity.
