An i2c bus multiplexer/switch will have several child busses that are
numbered uniquely in a device dependent manner. The nodes for an i2c bus
-multiplexer/switch will have one child node for each child
-bus.
+multiplexer/switch will have one child node for each child bus.
-Required properties:
+Optional properties:
+- #address-cells = <1>;
+ This property is required is the i2c-mux child node does not exist.
+
+- #size-cells = <0>;
+ This property is required is the i2c-mux child node does not exist.
+
+- i2c-mux
+ For i2c multiplexers/switches that have child nodes that are a mixture
+ of both i2c child busses and other child nodes, the 'i2c-mux' subnode
+ can be used for populating the i2c child busses. If an 'i2c-mux'
+ subnode is present, only subnodes of this will be considered as i2c
+ child busses.
+
+Required properties for the i2c-mux child node:
- #address-cells = <1>;
- #size-cells = <0>;
-Required properties for child nodes:
+Required properties for i2c child bus nodes:

- reg : The sub-bus number.

+Optional properties for i2c child bus nodes:
- Other properties specific to the multiplexer/switch hardware.
- Child nodes conforming to i2c bus binding
