I actually tried using the in tree i2c-mpc driver before sending out my email. This driver would silently reset the system when i2c accesses took place.

So I guess I'll try to modify the old driver to support new OF interface.

Is "your" freescale I2C driver different from "the" freescale I2C driver in drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-mpc.c? If so, you'll need to update it to be an of_platform driver like the in-tree driver is (or, just switch to the in-tree driver).
