i2c-gpio.c at drivers/i2c/busses/ just do the same thing.


+ nvidia,bpmp-bus-id: + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 + 
description: Indicates the I2C bus number this DT node represents, + as

Again, Does does devicetree specification prohibit this?

Nvidia also put i2c bus number in the DT, we learn that from nvidia. [1][2]
