Applied to target-arm.next, thanks.
Apologies for not picking this up earlier, the v2 got lost in the
side-conversation about spam filtering. (Blame gmail for not
doing email threading properly if you like :-))
Thanks, and no problem. This v2 is what we have downstream for this.
I'm working on a further improvement to it (separate feature change) that'll allow setting an id on the device so that all its channels have that the id embedded in them. This'll handle some of the situations we're observing where the qdev paths aren't great for command line added i2c devices. There's a side conversation going on about how best to accomplish this.
