Hi Jon, >>> The following series implements standard linux module aliasing for i2c >>> modules on arch=powerpc. It then converts the mpc i2c driver from being a >>> platform driver to an open firmware one. I2C device names are picked up >>> from the device tree. Module aliasing is used to translate from device tree >>> names into to linux kernel names. Several i2c drivers are updated to use >>> the new aliasing.

The latest version of i2c-cpm (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?person=1023&id=15902) makes use of this patch, as well. On the dbox2, loading and unloading of modules in any order just works fine.
