Remember that the i2c_driver does not create those client handles. The
foo_remove() returns. That binding model is used by most Linux drivers.
The probe function is called when an entry in the id_table name field
-matches the device's name. It is passed the entry that was matched so
-the driver knows which one in the table matched.
+matches the device's name. If the probe function needs that entry, it
