This series add OF device ID tables to RTC I2C drivers whose devices are

a compatible string.

That's done because the plan is to change the I2C core to report proper OF
modaliases instead of always reporting a MODALIAS=i2c:<foo> regardless if
a device was registered via DT or using the legacy platform data.

Doesn't that break the DT ABI for all i2c devices? A lot of people are
getting the vendor wrong in the compatible string and because the i2c
core doesn't care, the driver is still probed. Dropping that will break
all those DTBs.
Or will that only affect module autoload?
