To be honest I think I'll just give up on this task, it has been a big time sink and I had to explain over and over to different people what the problem is with the I2C modalias uevent reporting. I've posted patches for all the drivers that could be affected when reporting a proper OF modalias by the core and also the RFC patch to properly report it [0]. But it seems that for many maintainers this is just an unnecessary churn and they don't think there's an issue with the current behaviour. So it feels I'm causing more harm than good by keep pushing this.
