In context of your patchset, I think this mostly matters in the V4L2 flash API wrapper patch. GPIO controlled devices are little bit more troublesome, as GPIO numbers alone aren't necessarily stable, but depend on the probing order. Well, i2c controllers could also be registered dynamically. The same goes for PCI devices, too, for instance. Most i2c adapters have a static id, and PCI devices have a stable bus address (unless system configuration is modified by e.g. adding or removing OTHER devices). I wonder if this could be resolved on OF-based systems by adding a string property, say, device name, whenever where are more than one device of a kind in the system. The string could just contain a numeric value, say 0 or 1.
