Applied, thanks.  One small thing:

This feels like the wrong thing to do here: given that the user needs to
explicitly ask for the device to be instantiated we really ought to be
one the right bus so this should be more of an error.  Not sure what I
can constructively sugget except for an error message and perhaps
returning -EINVAL though.

Hi Mark,

Makes sense. Changing the return value to -EINVAL results in the following
warning message from the driver subsystem.

sc18is602: probe of 7-0010 failed with error -22

I think this should be good enough, as there are other possible reasons for the
call to fail which result in similar messages. Do you want to make that change,
or should I change it and resubmit ?

Thanks,
Guenter
