"module_platform_driver" you mean? That's tricky because it can
introduce regressions easily. I had one situation where one wanted
subsys_init and one wanted module_init.

The correct solution is to fix the boot dependency in the affected I2C
client drivers. That definately needs HW and thorough testing.

It may also need something better than the current deferred probe. Big
topic.
