The problem is that I2C device probe() functions are only called once, as the I2C bus is being initialized (in this case fsl_i2c_init()) I have 2 devices on this bus, one device gets it's initcall before fsl_i2c_init, the second one does not :-( This means that the second device is never probed. What can I do about this? Has the problem been seen before? I can provide more data, as required. note: I'm currently using 2.6.28, but I will be moving to 2.6.32 soon in case it matters, but I'd rather find/understand/fix this in 2.6.28 if possible.
