This patch adds the MPC5121 to the list of supported devices,
enhances the doc of the "clock-frequency" property and removes
the obsolete "cell-index" property from the example nodes.
Furthermore and example for the MPC5121 has been added.

Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Grandegger <redacted>

Thanks Wolfgang.  Comments below.

While you're editing this line; drop the requirement for the second
value to be 'fsl-i2c'.  We don't use it anymore, and only preserve it
for backwards compatibility with old trees.

OK.

Nah, leave this as is.  Don't make it sound like omitting both
properties is a valid option.  The driver may (and should!) handle the
situation gracefully, but that fact does not need to be documented.

The safe value is not a good choice, indeed. Then it will also change
MPC_I2C_CLOCK_SAFE to MPC_I2C_CLOCK_LEGACY in i2c-mpc.c.

I will also fix the other issues you commented on.

Thanks,

Wolfgang.
