Agreed this is super fragile, but we should at least try to make sure we
don't end up getting some random dynamic i2c adapter. Maybe add an
i2c_get_board_adapter or similar, which does this check in the i2c core?

Definitely need to pull in the i2c maintainers here (and help them with
avoid hair-pulling exercises on their end ...).
