So how exactly should it be documented? I mean if there were more than 1 OS they might have been using different fallbacks.

I think this is implementation quirk of I2C bus and I hope we'll fix it one of these days... Same with modalias dropping vendor prefix so we have to repeat OF data (sans vendor prefix) in I2C ID table if we want module auto-loading to work. > But that would imply one > of these is a fallback and the doc doesn't say that.
