I think this is overly complicated; something like linux,i2c-index in the
i2c adapter node would be simpler.
Though, I don't see what the problem with the original approach is, as long
as the numbers are chosen in the same way when registering i2c clients based
on the children of the adapter node. There's no concept in the hardware
itself of a bus number.
