Re: [PATCH] ARM: vexpress: initial device tree support

You make device nodes for each of the i2c adapters 

We have that already.

I2C mux node underneath the EDID one), 

Ok.

then you point to the correct 
adapter (or mux) node with a phandle-valued property in the video node.

The only connection between a device tree node and an I2C object is the
of_find_i2c_device_by_node() function.  That requires the I2C device to be
instantiated.

Of course, you need the deferral patch cited in another message.

Last I heard, it's not ready.  I suspect it will be part of kernel 3.4, at
the earliest.
