In general, how does that relate to i2c-bridge-drivers, as
of_find_device_by_node supposedly only acts on platform-devices?

Also if that points to a disabled bridge (hdmi, etc) that would likely make
it probe-defer indefinitly, as that device will never become available?

Maybe we could do something like of_device_is_available() which checks
the status property of the node. So something like:

  	pdev = of_find_device_by_node(node);
  	if (!pdev) {
		bool avail = of_device_is_available(node);

		of_node_put(node);

		/* if disabled
		if (!avail)
			return -ENODEV;
		else
			return -EPROBE_DEFER;
	}
  	of_node_put(node);

Though I still do not understand how that should actually pick up on
i2c devices at all.
