This was introduced in 4f001fd30145a6. On unloading, loaded device nodes will of course be unmarked. The problem are nodes that fail during initialisation: If a node fails, it won't be unloaded and hence not be unmarked. If a I2C driver module is unloaded and reloaded, it will skip nodes that failed before. Skip device nodes that are already populated and mark them only in case of success.
