i2c, apparently, can match the same device twice - the first
time in ->match bus hook (i2c_device_match()), and the second
one in ->probe (i2c_device_probe()) bus hook.

To make things more complicated, the second matching does not
do exactly same checks as the first one. Namely, i2c_device_match()
calls acpi_driver_match_device() which considers devices that
provide of_match_table and performs of_compatible() matching for
such devices. One important thing to note here is that ACPI
of_compatible() matching (acpi_of_match_device()) is part of ACPI
and does not depend on CONFIG_OF.

i2c_device_probe(), on the other hand, calls acpi_match_device()
which does not perform of_compatible() matching, but instead
i2c_device_probe() relies on CONFIG_OF API to perform of_match_table
matching, IOW ->probe matching, unlike ->match matching, depends on
CONFIG_OF. This can break i2c device probing on !CONFIG_OF systems
if the device does not provide .id_table.

 i2c_device_probe()
 ...
   if (!driver->id_table &&
       !i2c_acpi_match_device(dev->driver->acpi_match_table, client) &&
       !i2c_of_match_device(dev->driver->of_match_table, client)) {
       status = -ENODEV;
       goto put_sync_adapter;
   }

i2c_of_match_device() on !CONFIG_OF systems is always false, so we never
perform of_match_table matching. i2c_acpi_match_device() does ACPI match
only, no of_compatible() matching takes place, even though the device
provides .of_match_table and ACPI is capable of matching such device.

It is not entirely clear why the device is matched again in bus
->probe after successful and proper matching in bus ->match. Let's
remove ->probe matching.

Thanks.

I tested the patch on x86_64 (a mix of i2c devices with and without
.id_table) and arm64 boards - didn't notice any difference, module
probing wise.
