Introduce the capability to disable sensorhub through a device-tree property since there are some configurations where users want to explicitly disable sensor-hub auto-probing at bootstrap. A typical configuration is when the sensorhub clock/data lines are connected to a pull-up resistor since no slave sensors are connected to the i2c master. If SDO/SA0 line is connected to the same pull-up resistor, when the driver tries to probe slave devices connected on sensor-hub, it will force SDO/SA0 line to low, modifying the device i2c address.
