Subject: [PATCH 0/1] input: replace i2c_new_probed_device with an ERR_PTR variant

In the on-going mission to let i2c_new_* calls return an ERR_PTR instead of
NULL, here is a series for this subsystem converting i2c_new_probed_device() to
the newly introduced i2c_new_scanned_device(). Based on v5.5-rc1 and build tested.
Please apply via your tree.

Thanks,

   Wolfram

Changes since RFC:
* use a local variable and populate the private struct only on success
  (Thanks Dmitry!)
* rebased to v5.5-rc1
