It seems rather weird to have DVI connectors having an optional I2C
property, but HDMI (which augments DVI) not having that as at least an
optional property.

I can quite well see the iMX HDMI support needing an i2c bus here.

Also, HDMI has two connector standards - type A and type B, much like
the single vs dual link of DVI.  Again, DRM exposes this to userspace.
