Sure can. The for loop can be replaced with:
of_register_i2c_devices(adap, np);
I have tested it and it works. I guess it makes sense to put of_i2c.c
under drivers/of, but if it had been under drivers/i2c, I would have
noticed it ;)
But is this the way we want to go? I personally like it. It gets rid of
the index and gets rid of the i2c_register_board_info() from the
platform code.
Cheers,
Sean
