The two I2C bus multiplexer drivers (i2c-amd756-s4882 and
i2c-nforce2-s4985) make use of the bus they want to multiplex before
checking if it is really present. Swap the instructions to test for
presence first. This fixes a oops reported by Ingo Molnar.

Just like the Tyan S4882, the S4985 uses a multiplexer to give access
to all 16 memory module SPD EEPROMs. This specific i2c-nforce2-s4985
driver adds support for this. It is heavily based on the older
i2c-amd756-s4882 driver.
As more mainboards will use multiplexer chips, we will have to find a
way to support them without having to write a new specfic driver for
each. The recent changes to the i2c subsystem should help us, and the
new gpio subsystem might help, too.
