Why not just put this pointer ...

+static const struct of_device_id nmk_gpio_match[] = {
+       { .compatible = "st,nomadik-i2c", },
+       {}
+};

into the .data field after the .compatible match, and make it more specific
to the soc, i.e.

static const struct of_device_id nmk_gpio_match[] = {
	{ .compatible = "st-ericsson,u8500-i2c", .data =&u8500_i2c },
	{ .compatible = "st,nomadik-i2c", .data =&default_i2c_controller },
};

Because;
a) I only learned about .data way after this patch was written
and
b) _You_ told me to do it like this. ;)
