You can scratch this idea. I thought the i2c adapter's class code has
some use other than matching with device class. but it seems it is the
only use. I was thinking about having HWMON|NO_DETECT so that adapter
can still maintain the class identity.
Anyway, i don't think it is needed. Sorry for the confusion :)

Thanks,

Jacob
