Thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure which piece of this is wrong.
Is the issue with having the contents of an i2c bus in a dtsi file?
If so, would you prefer that we abandon the dtsi all together and
add the contents in the dts file that's currently including it? This is
a seperate board from the one that the dts file describes, and others
may use it when integrating with the mgx-cx8 board, so the thought was to break it out
as a separate file. The only interface we have to describe between the two boards
is i2c, so this structure seemed appropriate. If not, I'll gladly get rid of it.

If its something other than the file structure, please let me know.

Best regards,
Marc Olberding
