What is then the agreement here ? Add a clock-div to the device trees ? Or do
something similar to  mpc_i2c_get_sec_cfg_8xxx() ?

I think the clock-div property is better according to Freescale's AN 2919
section 3.1 Source clock. All the source clocks are fixed (with a clock-div of 2
in case of mpc8536/43/45/47/48/67/68/72, plus p2020) except for the mpc8533/44
where it can be 2 or 3, and that's what mpc_i2c_get_sec_cfg_8xxx() determines.

So mpc_i2c_get_sec_cfg_8xxx() should remain the exception and the other
prescaler values should be derived from an additional clock-div that must be
added in the respective device trees (at least for the qoriq devices, because
for instance mpc8543 already has the correct prescaler thanks to
mpc_i2c_data_8543 from i2c-mpc.c).

Do you have an opinion on the above ?

I don't mind. I'll leave it to PowerPC experts to judge if a new binding
is apropriate or reading SVR is the way to go. If it is going to be a
new binding, then please look around before if there is already
something similar around...
