Subject: [PATCH v1] HID: ft260: fix i2c probing for hwmon devices

The below scenario causes the kernel NULL pointer dereference failure:
1. sudo insmod hid-ft260.ko
2. sudo modprobe lm75
3. unplug USB hid-ft260
4. plug USB hid-ft260

It happened when i2c core probed for the devices associated with the lm75
driver by invoking 2c_detect()-->..-->ft260_smbus_write() from within the
ft260_probe before setting the adapter data with i2c_set_adapdata().

Moving the i2c_set_adapdata() before i2c_add_adapter() fixed the failure.
