Switch to the modern i2c probe_new callback and drop the i2c_device_id
array.  
First part is okay.
The second is interesting. It depends if we would like to keep a
possibility to instantiate devices from user space (strictly speaking
it's an ABI breakage).
We've also been bitten by this recently via greybus which does
it's instantiations using the i2c_device_id table as I understand it.
That's resulted in us reverting a few specific cases where we'd
done pretty much what you have done here.

So drop that part of the change.

Thanks,

Jonathan
