Good to know :)

Yes, but we don't have the client struct, only the adapter and the
address:

+static int i2c_scan_for_client(struct i2c_adapter *adap, unsigned short addr,
+                           int (*probe)(struct i2c_adapter *adap, unsigned short addr))

And even if we had the client struct, it would be empty because for most
cases scanning happens before binding to the driver. We don't even have
the name/type in case of i2c_detect().
