Ensures that client->driver is set to NULL if the probe() returns an
error (this keeps client->driver and client->dev.driver in sync).

Hans, I've updated your patch a bit to make i2c_device_probe() look
more like i2c_device_remove(); hope you don't mind.

David, this fix looks correct to me, I'll send it to Linus quickly if
you have no objection.
