why do you prefer here to use "unlocked" version of API?

Foe example would it be safe/possible to unload an I2C bus device driver
module or unbind I2C device itself in runtime?

Yes, the series is still under review/testing, with an update planned in a
week or so.

I think you ask why I change from of_get_i2c_... to of_find_i2c_..., and that
change was not intentional. It was the result of a bad merge during an early
rebase.

Does that cover it?

Yep, thank you for clarification, please account this in v3.

I'll try to find some time to review the whole changeset carefully,
in fact I briefly reviewed it two months ago, but I didn't find
anything obviously wrong that time.

Oh , v3 is old news, v4 was sent out some weeks ago, and there is a v5
on a github branch. This bad rebase was fixed in v4.

Please put that on hold until I have rebased ontop of v4.6-rc1 and
changed a couple of other things. I'd hate for you to waste your
time on outdated patches.

v6 is out now. Any help with reviewing/testing is much appreciated!
