Re: i2c driver's probe routine not getting called

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.

thanks

When my freescale I2C driver is insmoded, it calls platform_driver_register() successfully, but the probe routine doesn't get called. 

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).
