Just a note that this can only be made because the driver's Kconfig symbol
is bool and not tristate. Since for drivers that can be built as a module,
the I2C core always reports a MODALIAS of the form "i2c:as3722" and so the
i2c_device_id array and the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() are needed even when not
used by the driver.

As mentioned the change is correct for this driver but I just wanted to
point out in case other authors try to do the same change for drivers that
can be built as a module and so breaking module auto-loading.
