I take this as like any MFD. If i2c mux is one of the functions, we'll
have a child node for it. In that case, that device's binding will
define the 'i2c-mux' node and then reference this schema. The fact
that this mentions other nodes being I2C devices is not important and
a somewhat confusing detail. I considered just removing as I don't
think the paragraph is all that useful, but I try not to delete too
much from existing bindings.
