The I2C core always reports the MODALIAS uevent as "i2c:<client name"
regardless if the driver was matched using the I2C id_table or the
of_match_table. So the driver needs to export the I2C table and this
be built into the module or udev won't have the necessary information
to auto load the correct module when the device is added.

Who are you expecting to merge this?

I was expecting Benjamin Herrenschmidt since he is listed in MAINTAINERS
for drivers/macintosh. I cc'ed him in the patch but now in your answer I
don't see him in the cc list, strange.

But I'll be happy to re-post if there is another person who is handling
the patches for this driver now.

BTW there is another patch [0] for the same driver to export the OF id
table information, that was not picked either.

cheers
