sensord 2.8.2 on 2.6.0/ASUS chip - subclient problem

[Andrey Borzenkov]

sensord startup fails due to the fact that it tries to read alarms for ASUS 
as99127f subclient that are not available; sensors itself works OK:

Jan 11 13:06:40 localhost sensord: sensord started
Jan 11 13:06:40 localhost sensord: Error getting sensor data: as99127f/#81: 
Can't access /proc file
Jan 11 13:06:40 localhost sensord: sensord failed

I do not know if it is a sensord (should not attempt to read subclient) or 
kernel (does not provide sufficient information) problem. Subclient can be 
determined by its name:

{pts/1}% for i in /sys/bus/i2c/devices/*
do
echo ${i:t}:$(<$i/name)
done
0-002d:as99127f
0-0048:as99127f subclient
0-0049:as99127f subclient

Greg, this is supposed to be established convention now?
