One more idea, would it be better here to do the following?

	if (device_property_present(i2c->dev, "lltc,meas-mode")) {
		ret = of_property_read_u32_array(of_node, "lltc,meas-mode",
						 data->mode, 2);
	}

I'm happy to prepare a patch if you wish to have this in - just let me know whether it should be on top of the last one, or instead of it.

That would be semantically different. The property is currently mandatory.
The above code would make it optional. This might work:

	if (dev_fwnode(&i2c->dev)) {
		ret = device_property_read_u32_array(...);
		...
	}

Fair point. The semantic change was part of my question, but the more I think about it, the less I want to open this can of worms. We can still make the property optional later on, while it's not as easy to make it mandatory.

I'll send a patch with your suggestion.

Thanks!
Max
