The recent change in elants_i2c driver to support more chips introduced a regression leading to Oops at probing. The driver reads id->driver_data, but the id may be NULL depending on the device type the driver gets bound. Add a NULL check and falls back to the default EKTH3500.Thank you for the patch. I think my preference would be to switch to device_get_match_data() and annotate the rest of the match tables with proper controller types.
Doesn't a NULL mean that elants_i2c_id[] table fails to match the ACPI device name? What is the name then? This could be two patches: 1 - trivial fix that can be backported easily 2 - switch to device_get_match_data()
