> Subject: [PATCH] I2C: add the source of the IRQ in struct i2c_client
>
> With commit 4d5538f5882a ("i2c: use an IRQ to report Host Notify events,
> not alert"), the IRQ provided in struct i2c_client might be assigned while
> it has not been explicitly declared by either the platform information
> or OF or ACPI.
> Some drivers (lis3lv02d) rely on the fact that the IRQ gets assigned or
> not to trigger a different behavior (exposing /dev/freefall in this case).
>
> Provide a way for others to know who set the IRQ and so they can behave
> accordingly.

I'd think some documentation somewhere makes sense why we need to

Adding something to i2c_driver is not exactly cheap, but from what I
glimpsed from this thread, this is one of the cleanest solution to this
problem?
