Are you saying that the comment in property.c is correct, and i2c_new_client_device() shall *not* call device_add_properties() ? I mean, the code works and stuff, except that the swnode that device_add_properties() created won't be freed as far as I can see. In other words, should the current properties code in i2c_new_client_device() be replaced by something that creates a swnode, just like the i2c-icy driver currently does manually when it instantiates the ltc2990 I2C client?
