Sorry? I didn't see a kernel version mentioned. I went looking because I
had though that i2c-gpio was already subsys_initcall.

Moving the embedded i2c busses to subsys_initcall was discussed here:
http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/i2c/2008-June/004142.html. The
i2c_gpio bus got mentioned, which is why I thought it had already been
changed.
