The init vs. register split is intentional. Registering the thing and allowing userspace access to it before the rest of the driver is ready isn't particularly great. For a while now we've tried to move towards an architecture where the driver is fully initialzied before anything gets exposed to userspace.

Yeah-thank you for pointing this out. Thierry - do you think there's an alternate solution we could go with in Tegra to fix the get_device() issue that wouldn't require us trying to expose the i2c adapter early?
