I have been bitten by this myself on RM9200.

This pattern exist in at91rm9200_devices.c, at91sam9261_devices.c,
at91sam9263_devices.c and at91sam9rl_devices.c you might want to fix
them as well.

I assume we have the same problem if CONFIG_I2C_AT91 is set?
See further down in at91sam9260_devices.c we have another:  ".id = -1,"
