Handle i2c gates similarly to how i2c arbitrators are handled.
This gets rid of a pointless 'reg' property for i2c gates.
I.e. this new and more compact style
some-gate {
i2c-gate {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
some-i2c-device@50 {
reg = <0x50>;
};
};
};
instead of the old
some-gate {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
i2c@0 {
reg = <0>;
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
some-i2c-device@50 {
reg = <0x50>;
};
};
};

+Common i2c gate properties.

+- i2c-gate child node

+Required properties for the i2c-gate child node:
+- #address-cells = <1>;
+- #size-cells = <0>;

+Optional properties for i2c-gate child node:
+- Child nodes conforming to i2c bus binding
