We are getting there though. I'm just waiting for the patches in this [0] series
to land and then I'll be able to post the I2C core uevent modalias patch.

I've asked Wolfram if he can at least pick the driver patches [1], but he didn't
answer me yet...

[PATCH] media: i2c: adv748x: Export I2C device table entries as module aliases

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

The I2C core always reports a MODALIAS of the form i2c: even if the
device was registered via OF, and the driver is only exporting the OF ID
table entries as module aliases.

So if the driver is built as module, autoload won't work since udev/kmod
won't be able to match the registered OF device with its driver module.

[PATCH] media: i2c: adv748x: Export I2C device table entries as module aliases

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

The I2C core always reports a MODALIAS of the form i2c: even if the
device was registered via OF, and the driver is only exporting the OF ID
table entries as module aliases.

So if the driver is built as module, autoload won't work since udev/kmod
won't be able to match the registered OF device with its driver module.
