Since commit d3e1b617ae20c459 ("i2c: allow specify device properties in
i2c_board_info"), the properties could be provided by info->properties, too.
However, according to the comments for device_add_properties(), this is
valid only if there is a real firmware node present.
If that is true, Max' use is correct, while e.g. commit 6a7836ba7fb4abf6
("ARM: imx: pca100: use device properties for at24 eeprom") isn't?
