Thanks for your patch!

Looks correct to me, so

strscpy() return value?

The call to memset() would not be needed if info would be initialized
at declaration time, i.e.

    struct i2c_board_info info = { .addr = addr };

Or, use I2C_BOARD_INFO(), to guarantee initialization is aligned
with whatever future changes made to i2c_board_info? But that relies
on providing the name at declaration time, which we already have in
i2c_new_dummy_device().

So I suggest to add a name parameter to i2c_new_dummy_device(),
rename it to __i2c_new_dummy_device(), and create a wrapper for
compatibility with existing users:

    struct i2c_client *__i2c_new_dummy_device(struct i2c_adapter
*adapter, u16 address,
                                             const char *name)
    {
            struct i2c_board_info info = {
                    I2C_BOARD_INFO("dummy", address),
            };

            if (name) {
                    ssize_ret = strscpy(info.type, name, sizeof(info.type));

                    if (ret < 0)
                            return ERR_PTR(dev_err_probe(&client->adapter->dev,
                                           ret, "Invalid device name\n");
            }

            return i2c_new_client_device(adapter, &info);
    }
