As a follow up to the earlier fun with greybus etc, have to jump through
some hoops to have a fallback here if we have a firmware type that can't
do get_match_data driver/base/sw_node.c is the one greybus is using.

We have drivers that don't do this because frankly I didn't know about it
until a month or two ago.  However, I'm not keen to introduce any
more.
Couldn't greybus be fixed in that regard? Using the i2c_device_id has
been deprecated for a while now.

what we could do is only provide ms5803 support when there is an
of_node. So this doesn't break the ABI and doesn't break greybus and at
the same time doesn't unnecessarily add complexity to the probe for
something that will probably never be used.
