In principle, I think you should be able to add something like this here:

		i2c-gate {
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			tuner@60 {
				compatible = "silabs,si2157";
				reg = <0x60>;
				/* whatever else is needed */
			};
		};

But in practice, I don't know if the si2157 driver understands that or
if there is anything else that gets in the way. Totally untested...

The i2c-gate child node is examined when you call i2c_mux_add_adapter
if you have provided the correct struct device in the second argument
when you called i2c_mux_alloc (I think that is already the case). You
also need to set the I2C_MUX_GATE flag in the i2c_mux_alloc call, but
I do not see a problem with that since I think only one child adapter
is added. If it is a problem to add the I2C_MUX_GATE flag, then you
can just adjust the above i2c-gate node according to the bindings in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c-mux.txt. I.e. add this
instead of the above i2c-gate node:

		i2c-mux {
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			i2c@0 {
	                        #address-cells = <1>;
        	                #size-cells = <0>;
                	        reg = <0>;

				tuner@60 {
					compatible = "silabs,si2157";
					reg = <0x60>;
					/* whatever else is needed */
				};
			};
		};

But it feels *right* to add the I2C_MUX_GATE flag, because a gate is
what you have. I think?

Cheers,
Peter
