In an SoC .dtsi file, you'd typically write:

	status = "disabled";

... in all nodes that represent IO controllers that interface to
external HW, so that board DT files can/must explicitly choose to enable
the device if it's actually in use on the board. Some systems might not
have HDMI and hence might not hook up the HDMI_SCL/SDA pads.

BCM2835-ARM-Peripherals.pdf states "Note that the BSC2 master is used
dedicated with the HDMI interface and should not be accessed by user
programs.". Does this imply the Linux kernel shouldn't be touching this
I2C controller; that the VC4 firmware might also be attempting to use
it? I wonder how any such sharing of the HW would work.
