Currently the I2C framework insists on devices supplying an I2C ID
table.  Many of the devices which do so unnecessarily adding quite a
few wasted lines to kernel code.  This patch allows drivers a means
to 'not' supply the aforementioned table and match on either DT
and/or ACPI match tables instead.
