Alessandro Rubini is actively working on bridging this (and
other amba_device primecells) to PCI, that is the reason why it
was recently converted to an amba_device. How is he then supposed to
get the proper parameters into the driver? Note that the PCI ID
is no help at all since the parameters depend on what is connected
to the I2C bus, not on what it itself is connected to. Isn't platform data
used in such cases?

Yours,
Linus Walleij
