<content type='text'>
While being less compact, using named initializers allows to more easily
see which members of the structs are assigned which value without having
to lookup the declaration of the struct. And it's also more robust
against changes to the struct definition.

The mentioned robustness is relevant for a planned change to struct
i2c_device_id that replaces .driver_data by an anonymous union.

While touching all these arrays, unify indention and usage of commas.

This patch doesn't modify the compiled arrays, only their representation
in source form benefits. The former was confirmed with x86 and arm64
builds.

<title>hwmon: Drop explicit initialization of struct i2c_device_id::driver_data to 0</title>

These drivers don't use the driver_data member of struct i2c_device_id,
so don't explicitly initialize this member.

This prepares putting driver_data in an anonymous union which requires
either no initialization or named designators. But it's also a nice
cleanup on its own.

<title>hwmon: use simple i2c probe function</title>

<content type='text'>
Many hwmon drivers don't use the id information provided by the old
i2c probe function, and the remainder can easily be adapted to the new
form ("probe_new") by calling i2c_match_id explicitly.

This avoids scanning the identifier tables during probes.

Drivers which didn't use the id are converted as-is; drivers which did
are modified as follows:

* if the information in i2c_client is sufficient, that's used instead
  (client-&gt;name);
* anything else is handled by calling i2c_match_id() with the same
  level of error-handling (if any) as before.

A few drivers aren't included in this patch because they have a
different set of maintainers. They will be covered by other patches.

The timeout module parameter should not be used for setting the default
timeout. Because, if you set the timeout = 0, the default timeout will
be meaningless. And the timeout module parameter of 0 means "no timeout
