> It appears that I'm not correctly creating the pca9539 nodes as of yet (I'll be adding the phandles shortly).  Any pointers for pca9539 driver nodes would be appreciated, as I took these from a similar tree, but not the 95xx driver.  I'll match them up with the code in the morning ...

I *believe* you are not supposed to create separate nodes for reading
and writing.  I know that's how I2C works, but I think the I2C layer
takes care of that for you.

If you look at other device trees, you'll see they only have one node
for any particular I2C device.
