dm: i2c: Make i2c_get_chip_for_busnum() fail if the chip is not detected
i2c_get_chip_for_busnum() really should check the presence of the chip on
the bus. Most of the users of this function assume that this is done.
... causes a boot failure on NVIDIA Jetson TX2:
:-(
Thanks for detecting so fast!

This may be due to the fact the bus in question is implemented by RPC to a separate CPU, and that
mechanism hasn't been used with probing before. In general though, there's not guarantee that
probing will work even on a local/native I2C bus, since different chips don't support all probe
methods (see i2c-detect in Linux, which supports various different probing methods due to this), so
I'm rather surprised this change was implemented. Is it really necessary? I believe we should revert
it.
Hmm... yes, you are right.
Ah, Jean-Jacques first had another approach, see:

May it is possible to switch back to this approach ?
bye,
