paragraph while here.

If you know for a fact that an I2C device is connected to a given I2C bus,
you can instantiate that device by simply filling an i2c_board_info
structure with the device address and driver name, and calling
i2c_new_device(). This will create the device, then the driver core will
take care of finding the right driver and will call its probe() method.

If a driver supports different device types, you can specify the type you
want using the type field. You can also specify an IRQ and platform data
if needed.
