I don't really like using a module parameter to modify the contents of
struct platform_data, especially when this comes from a board file.

Intead this should look something like

        if (!i2c_davinci_busfreq)
                i2c_davinci_bus_freq = pdata->bus_freq;

and the code should use i2c_davinci_busfreq instead of pdata->bus_freq.
