[PATCH v4 11/22] i2c: core: Probe i2c adapters and devices on demand

[Tomeu Vizoso]

When looking up an i2c adapter or device through its OF node, probe it
if it hasn't already.

The goal is to reduce deferred probes to a minimum, as it makes it very
cumbersome to find out why a device failed to probe, and can introduce
very big delays in when a critical device is probed.
