I tested the second patch with a trivial patch to the radeon drm:

--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_i2c.c
+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_i2c.c
@@ -892,9 +892,9 @@ struct radeon_i2c_chan *radeon_i2c_create(struct
drm_device *dev,
         * make this, 2 jiffies is a lot more reliable */
        i2c->algo.radeon.bit_data.timeout = 2;
        i2c->algo.radeon.bit_data.data = i2c;
-       ret = i2c_bit_add_bus(&i2c->algo.radeon.bit_adapter);
+       ret = i2c_bit_prepare_bus(&i2c->algo.radeon.bit_adapter);
        if (ret) {
-               DRM_ERROR("Failed to register internal bit i2c %s\n", name);

                goto out_free;
        }
        /* set the radeon i2c adapter */

However, just calling i2c_bit_prepare_bus does not appear to be
enough. as I get the following oops:
