In 2.6.18, the scx200_i2c driver was working just fine.  Now while
moving to 2.6.26 I find that the bus no longer locates any devices when
drivers are loaded, even though i2cdetect has no problem locating
devices on the bus.

After some searching, I discovered that the scx200_i2c driver doesn't
have a .class parameter filled in, even though every other i2c driver
does.  A small patch adding the .class parameter fixes the problem.

Not sure if it should be I2C_CLASS_ALL or I2C_CLASS_HWMON, or even
I2C_CLASS_HWMON | I2C_CLASS_SPD (in current git tree).  Using
I2C_CLASS_ALL works for me and works with my lm75, m41t81 and spd
eeprom in 2.6.26.
