The current driver probe() function assumes the sensor device to be
alwary present and gets executed every time if the driver is loaded,
but the appropriate hardware could not be present.

So, move the platform device creation as part of platform init code
and use the 'id_table' to check if the device present or not.

Looks good. We'll need an ack from one of the powerpc maintainers to proceed.

Looks OK to me.
