(Very) old driver, so it uses the fallback method that i2c provides to bind to
the compatible with the vendor id dropped via i2c_device_id entry.

Having said that, I'd also prefer the addition of an explicit of_device_id table.
As there is only one supported device in this driver should be trivial.
