Do we need to use both approaches? bus-addr could just as well be obtained through a phandle to the i2c device and reading its reg property. From this phandle you could also go back up to the bus, making the i2c-bus property unnecessary. reg-addr and reg-data cannot be specified that way, obviously.
This was in fact how I used to implement this, but Stephen or Thierry pointed out that the reg property actually might not contain the correct address (I think because the PMIC could have multiple addresses, and the one in DT might not be the one that accepts the reset command).
The workaround for that was to either add this integer property for bus-addr or add a new PMIC API for querying. I went for this as it is much simpler.
Actually I think I'd prefer to see i2c-bus become an integer property instead of a phandle, because at the end of the day it is a value field of a particular register and the reference is only used to retrieve that value. It is not like we are actually going to call functions on the bus instance or change its state. And for the single purpose of retrieving that value, this binding requires the addition of a new property on the bus node that will probably never be used for something else.
And this was how I used to implement this even earlier, but Thierry objected to that since it was duplicating information :)
We can also imagine that some design may not have a PMIC device in the DT but still want to use the thermal reset feature. In this case, it is again preferable to use direct values.
I don't see how that'd change anything; the hardware feature still requires an I2C device to send a message to. If there's an I2C device on one of the SoC buses, you probably should have it in the DT..
