[PATCH v2] Input: elan_i2c - check if device is there before really probing

Before trying to properly initialize the touchpad and generate bunch of
errors, let's first see it there is anything at the given address. If we
get error, fail silently with -ENXIO.

v2: switched over to i2c_smbus_read_byte() as Guenter suggested
