I added this message because when the gate was left closed the eeprom content 
(printed out unconditionally in saa7134_i2c_eeprom) looks garbled in dmesg,
so it's better to inform user that he (or she) shouldn't be worried about this.
The eeprom dump is called from saa7134_i2c_register, before card-specific code 
has opportunity to run.

It was done in that order (tuner first then tda9887) for a long time before it 
was changed.
For example ( 
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=drivers/media/video/saa7134/saa7134-core.c;hb=7a766f9ddd74b50d6069f054a3004ece0439f5c1
 ) it used to look like that:
 942         /* load i2c helpers */
 943         if (TUNER_ABSENT != dev->tuner_type)
 944                 request_module("tuner");
 945         if (dev->tda9887_conf)
 946                 request_module("tda9887");
 947         if (card_is_empress(dev)) {
 948                 request_module("saa6752hs");
 949                 request_module_depend("saa7134-empress",&need_empress);
 950         }

But then the code for tda9887 was integrated into tuner module and later split 
out again, this time reversing the detection order (by accident I suppose).
