tps65010 driver's initcall cannot succeed when the driver is built-in, because it expects that the I2C probe is completed at initcall time; this cannot happen as MFD is initialized before I2C. Also on systems where the chip is not present there is unnecessary 30 ms delay during the boot. Instead of waiting for probe to finish, just register the I2C device. If some boards need retry mechanism for startup glitches, that should be done in the actual probe function. Also move the driver banner message to the probe function, and make it print the chip model being probed. The patch allows to use tps65010 again with OMAP1 (where it's required to be built-in) and enables e.g. USB and LED functionality on OMAP5912 OSK.
