Leave trailing comma in such cases (when it's not a terminator and
not on the same line with the variable definition).

Perhaps you can introduce something like

#define DEFINE_I2C_OF_PROBE_CFG(_type_, _ops_)		\
	(struct ...) {					\
		.ops = _ops_,				\
		.type = #_type_,			\
	}

and use it here as

	.cfg = DEFINE_I2C_OF_PROBE_CFG(touchscreen, NULL),

> +		.type = "touchscreen"

Ditto.

> +	}

Ditto.

Leave a comma.

	.cfg = DEFINE_I2C_OF_PROBE_CFG(trackpad, i2c_of_probe_simple_ops),

Or even

#define DEFINE_I2C_OF_PROBE_CFG_SIMPLE(_type_)			\
	DEFINE_I2C_OF_PROBE_CFG(type, &i2c_of_probe_simple_ops)

> +	.opts = &(const struct i2c_of_probe_simple_opts) {

Perhaps also DEFINE_xxx for this compound literal?

These strings are a bit long, perhaps wrap on one member per line?
