I now use OF_DEV_AUXDATA in board code, "id" nor "cell-index" used:
struct of_dev_auxdata enbw_cmc_auxdata_lookup[] __initdata = {
OF_DEV_AUXDATA("ti,davinci-i2c", 0x01c22000, "i2c_davinci.1", NULL),
OF_DEV_AUXDATA("ti,davinci-i2c", 0x01e28000, "i2c_davinci.2", NULL),
{}
};
This is needed for hooking up clocks, see:
arch/arm/mach-davinci/da850.c
static struct clk_lookup da850_clks
[...]
CLK("i2c_davinci.1", NULL, &i2c0_clk),
[...]
CLK("i2c_davinci.2", NULL, &i2c1_clk),
bye,
Heiko
