The i2c subsys does not load modules by compatible, only by i2c-id, with e.g. a modalias of: "i2c:axp209". Populate the axp20x_i2c_id[] table with supported ids, so that module auto-loading will work. Reported-by: Dennis Gilmore <redacted> Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <redacted>

Even though axp20x-i2c seems to be the only "DT only" i2c client,
would it make sense to add DT-based module autoloading to the i2c
core?
This also made me realize we probably don't have module auto-loading
for sunxi-rsb either.
Both should be doable with Stephen Boyd's "of: device: Export
of_device_{get_modalias, uvent_modalias} to modules" patch.
