Will update the subject prefix to: 'dt-bindings: i2c: pca954x:'
Also I'm adding three properties here so I guess 'Add custom
properties..' should be fine.
If you have a better suggestion then please let me know.

These features cannot be enabled by default because doing so may lead
to unexpected behavior, such as bus disconnections(although that
wasn't expected).
These features should only be enabled after they have been validated
by the board designer.
Therefore, they cannot be enabled by default.
