Those child nodes represent the downstream i2c buses, and so also
contain the i2c slave devices, right? If so, you may want to document
that, and/or add a simple device to that example (say, an EEPROM).

Cheers,

Yes, good point, but the driver currently wouldn't do anything with that 
device information. It doesn't keep a list of populated devices on the 
bus or anything. Still worth adding them to the device tree?

Thanks,
Eddie

Surely the i2c core needs this to be able to find i2c slave devices on
the bus though?

[You'll need to set i2c_adapter->dev.of_node for this to work though,
which I don't think you are with the current patch set]

Cheers,

Only one version?

The ports are separate i2c buses? Use i2c-bus@... instead. "ports" is 
already used by OF graph binding.
