Hello Lee,

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

I'm not really familiar with these drivers, I'm just doing this as a part
of the bigger work to fix the I2C core to report a proper OF modaliases.

but I'll see if I can find more information in the driver or if there is
documentation about these online.

Yes, sorry. I just copied the DT snippet from a DTS that used this, I'll
remove it on the next version.
