Class based instantiation can cause huge delays when booting. This mechanism was used when it was not possible to describe slaves on I2C busses. We now have other mechanisms, so most embedded I2C will not need classes and it was explicitly not recommended to use them. Add a deprecation warning for drivers who want to disable class based in the near future to gain boot-up time, so users relying on this technique can switch to something better. They really should.
