This looks way over 80 chars.

Did you run checkpatch.pl?

All as above for this function.

Wait, what?  This is over-engineered.

Just have a look-up table (switch) of supported devices.

#define EOPNOTSUPP      95      /* Operation not supported on transport endpoint */

I think you want:

#define ENODEV          19      /* No such device */

Don't think this comment is required.

Nor this.

Why do you call it 'client' in .probe, but 'i2c' in .remove?
