Earlier it was assumed that the data pointer in of_device_id must not start with 0 (NULL) if i2c_get_match_data() is used. However, it turns out that this is perfectly fine as long as there is also an i2c_device_id array with the same data, which is used as fallback in that case. Let enum chips start with 0 to avoid confusion against other drivers where the enum starts with 0 and i2c_get_match_data() is used as well. While doing that, remove chip_id from struct mp2856_data since it is only used in the probe function, and typecast the result of i2c_get_match_data() to kernel_ulong_t to avoid the double typecast.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
