Delete mkdev.sh. i2c device nodes are created by devfs or udev on most

2.6 kernel-based systems, for others they should have been created at
system installation time. If they are missing, sensors-detect will run
MAKEDEV to create them.

 There is a scanning program installed called sensors-detect. It
