Well, its just an empty string (so, 1). Actually I could assign NULL
here, since we do have a default in the case later on.

Hm, when the device is not answering on that request, the probe method
should fail I would say. This means that the device is missing most
likely. However, I should set the device version to TPS6586X_ANY if I
happen to end up in the default case.

Since I will alter the version when I end up in the default case in my
next patch, would you still do a separate subroutine? I think its
somewhat heavily coupled to the probe function.

Sorry missing you on the CC, will do next time :-)
