LEGO chose to ignore the I2C specification and has created devices with
I2C addresses of 0x01 and 0x02. i2c_check_7bit_addr_validity_strict()
disallows these addresses, so we need a special case to skip this for
LEGO sensors.

Furthermore, LEGO devices do not respond to i2c_default_probe(), so we
skip this as a special case as well.
