The aforementioned commit was part of a patch-set. One of its affiliates
moved this code into the Nomadik I2C driver; however, it was contested
because Device Tree support was also added and the maintainer thought 
the properties introduced could be consolidated with other I2C driver's
DT properties. I don't think anyone has taken up the consolidation work
and for that reason it hasn't gone in.

I think moving this stuff into the driver is the right thing to do.
Instead, I'll split out the configuration and DT enablement from the
patch and resubmit.

Sound good to you?
