[Buildroot] issue with I2C driver : ft6x06

Hi,

I got the following configuration working :
- Raspberry Pi B+
- PiTFT 2.8" capacitive touchscreen (FT6x06 I2C chip for touchscreen)
- Kernel 4.1.5 + ft6x06 patch (ft6x06 introduced in v4.4)
- NFS rootfs

For some reason, I decided to switch to Raspberry Pi 2. Everything 
works, but the touchscreen : no entry is created in /dev/input and no 
output in dmesg. I tried to replace i2c_bcm2708 by i2c_bcm2835, but no luck.

I must be missing something...

David.
