macintosh: Don't assume i2c device probing always succeeds
If i2c device probing fails, then there is no driver to dereference after calling i2c_new_device(). Stop assuming that probing will always succeed, to avoid NULL pointer dereferences. We have an easier access to the driver anyway. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Tested-by: Tim Shepard <shep@alum.mit.edu> Cc: Colin Leroy <colin@colino.net>
