HID: i2c-hid: Prefer asynchronous probe
Adding printouts to the i2c_hid_probe() function shows that it takes quite some time. It used to take about 70 ms, but after commit eef40162 ("HID: i2c-hid: Always sleep 60ms after I2C_HID_PWR_ON commands") it takes about 190 ms. This is not tons of time but it's not trivial. Because we haven't yet specified that we'd prefer asynchronous probe for this driver then, if the driver is builtin to the kernel, we'll wait for this driver to finish before we start probes for more drivers. Let's set the flag to enable asynchronous for this driver so that other drivers aren't blocked from probing until we finish. Since this driver can be configured as a module and modules are always asynchronously probed this is quite a safe change and will benefit anyone who has a reason to build this driver into the kernel instead of using it as a module.
