drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c: In function ‘i2c_detect.isra’:
drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c:2544:1: warning: the frame size of 1312 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
 2544 | }
      | ^

Fix this by allocating the temporary client structure dynamically, as it
is a rather large structure (1216 bytes, depending on kernel config).

Mostly compile-tested, as apparently I have no I2C devices for which
driver->detect and driver->address_list are valid.

Apparently an alternative solution was posted before, but that does not
fully address the potential stack size issue:
"[PATCH] i2c: core: mark i2c_detect_address noinline_for_stack".

Looks good to me.

As Arnd mentioned, this is basically a revert of 735668f8e5c9.
Applied to for-current, thanks!
