It's true for all Pis that I2C0 is exposed over 2 sets of gpios.
Seeing as we want to support cameras on Pi0-3, is there a reason not
to include the mux on those?

Looking back I had started this way back in [1] with all the variants.
I thought I'd posted the v2 follow up, but can't find it.
The original Pi 1 models A & B were the annoyances. The rev1 put the
camera on i2c1 GPIOs 2&3, with the rev2 on i2c0 with GPIOs 0&1.

Whilst it would be nice to have support for all platforms, this
doesn't stop us moving the mux into bcm283x-rpi.dtsi at a later date
to add support for the other devices.
I'm happy enough having the first step of getting Pi4 working, with
others being done later.

Why defaulting to disabled?

The current mainline DT defaults to i2c0 being enabled on GPIOs 0&1
(done via bcm2835-rpi.dtsi).
If the mux is disabled, then this change has left i2c0 being enabled
but with no pinctrl property, so it's not connected to the outside
world.
GPIOs 44&45 have never had any other user, therefore claiming them for
the mux isn't a regression in my view.


As long as we can enable the other platforms later, and with the minor
caveat over being enabled or not:

Acked-by: Dave Stevenson <dave.stevenson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Minor point that CONFIG_I2C_MUX_PINCTRL appears not to be in the arm64
defconfig. I don't know what the policy is there, but there seem to be
many other SoCs throwing modules in there for their configurations.
It is in arm/multi_v7_defconfig.
