since commit b8a1a4cd5a98 ("i2c: Provide a temporary .probe_new() call-back type") from 2016 there is a "temporary" alternative probe callback for i2c drivers.
This series completes all drivers to this new callback (unless I missed something). It's based on current next/master. A part of the patches depend on commit 662233731d66 ("i2c: core: Introduce i2c_client_get_device_id helper function"), there is a branch that you can pull into your tree to get it:

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark
