Yah, I mentioned it to Mark Rutland at the last ELC and he said he
might take a look at it, but I probably should have posted something
up to the i2c list.

I made a half-assed attempt to fix it locally in the ChromeOS but
quickly found that it was going to be a much bigger job than I had
time for...

IIRC i2c_new_device didn't return an error like I thought it would,
probably trying to deal with the fact that devices might show up at a
later point in time.


Hrm, now that I think about it I wonder if the right answer is just to
call i2c_new_device for all the compatible strings even if it doesn't
return an error.  I'd have to go back and try that and re-explore this
code...
