Hi!

After reading v2/v3, I finally got why you removed if (!mux->data.reg).
I.e., since you removed the io-remapping from i2c_mux_reg_probe_fw()
that part can now be unconditional in i2c_mux_reg_probe(). But,
keeping the if just to accomodate potential out-of-tree code that uses
the platform data hooking is not needed so v1 feels better than v2/v3.
Sorry for being dense. However, see below.

Why did you not change to i2c_find_adapter_by_fwnode()? It would be
closer to the original, but maybe that doesn't work for ACPI for some
reason?

By not doing the io-remapping here, the ordering is now subtly altered.
Previously we had io-remapping before the call to i2c_get_adapter().
With this change we instead have the call to i2c_get_adapter() before
the io-remapping.

Since it is apparently difficult the get this patch tested for the
existing use cases, we should avoid as many of these innocent looking
but subtle changes as possible.

Cheers,
Peter
