Hi Wolfram,
I don't think that it's possible to use the generic vbus-supply.
In my case the complete chip, not only the bus, is powered by a regulator.
In addition it looks like this works only for platform drivers where
you can set the bus_regulator
before the i2c core probe function is invoked.

Regards,
Patrick Rudolph
